Beverly Andrews - playwright
Just came back from a great rehearsal. Such wonderful actors and what a brilliant director and producer. I'm so luck this never happens for a workshop performance!!

Jean
It was Ang's birthday and I wanted to get her something nice, like. I saw this necklace at this shop. I'd never been in there cause they had all this posh stuff for rich people there. But this necklace was nice and the price was just £25 pounds and I thought it would take me a while but I thought I could get that together no problem. But when I went in there to get it on the morning of her birthday, the woman at the counter just told me like that they had made a mistake and that it wasn't £25 pounds but £250. She didn't say it in a nice way either. She looked at me like I was scum or something. When I left. At first I felt awful, cause now I wouldn't have nothing nice for Angi's birthday but then I saw this woman walking by with this real expensive bracelet on and I just thought it's not fair. Why we never seem to have nothing. Then I felt just angry. All this rage just rushed up through my body like and I just wanted to go out and smash something.., or someone.

Pastor Mustapha
David
Your mother and I can't wait until you arrive home safe and sound. America for us some times seems almost a life time away here in Uganda and you have been gone such a very long time. But I know you did what you have to do and we are so very, very proud of you. My son a Masters in Theology. I can't tell you how good that makes me feel to be able to say that and especially since I know you and you took what was good from America and left the rest behind. Every time I preach now in the church I tell myself that I'm just keeping the pulpit warm for you since it will be yours one day. And I know you will continue all the work that I have done and steer the church on a righteous course. We so need that David here in Uganda, when I look around today at our young people I feel we are in some kind of spiritual warfare. They seem so lost. They embrace the wrong values and if we left it too long we will have a generation who are completely lost. Young people need someone here that they can look up to. David there is so much good work you can do here. I just can't wait to see it. I pray everyday for this month to be over soon son and for you to be home again for good.
Your mother always complains that my emails to you ramble on so I will go now. But just know that both your mother and I hold you close in our hearts.
I love you so very much.
your father

Henry's Diary
It's the second day this week that I've been late for a meeting. No one says anything but there's just this feeling. It's probably nothing. It's probably just me being paranoid. It's just I've never been late like this before not like this. I don't understand what's going on, I use to enjoy what I did. But now somehow I just can't seem to drag myself out of bed. I use to love to get to work, to get to the bank but I don't know.., I have to stop taking it out on Jane its not her fault. I just , we just need a holiday that's all. Once we get away for a while everything will be just fine. Just fine.

Hi Mom
I'm so sorry I didn't say more when I left. I reckon I didn't want to start talking to much cause, you know I guess one of us would just end up crying. I'm not mad at dad. He is who he is. Please don't worry about me mom. I'll be fine. I think maybe this all happened for a reason. Maybe I needed to be forced to leave and dad seeing, seeing what he saw was it. Mom please don't worry. I'll be ok and I promise to write you as soon as I get to New York.
I love you mom
Michael
