For this year’s Fall play, the Alameda High School (AHS) drama department is putting on Radium Girls by D.W. Gregory.

I had the good fortune to see a dress rehearsal of It’s Only a Play on August 20 at the Altarena Playhouse’s fascinating theater (1409 High St.). This iteration of Terrence McNally’s renowned 1982 off-Broadway play was directed by Altarena’s artistic director Katina Psihos Lerheule.
