The 65th Ballyshannon Drama Festival will open with \u2018Tuesdays with Morrie\u2019 written by Jeffrey Hatcher and Mitch Albom, based on the novel of the same name by Albom. The show is produced by the long established\u00a0Backburners theatre group from Newtownstewart, featuring our very own Paddy Campbell, making a very welcome return to the Abbey stage.<\/p>\n

\"Tuesdays<\/a>\u2018Tuesdays with Morrie\u2019 is the autobiographical story of Mitch Albom, an accomplished journalist driven solely by his career, and Morrie Schwartz, his former college professor. Sixteen years after graduation, Mitch happens to catch Morrie\u2019s appearance on a television news programme \u00a0and learns that his old professor is battling Lou Gehrig\u2019s Disease. Mitch is reunited with Morrie, and what starts as a simple visit turns into a weekly pilgrimage and a last class in the meaning of life.<\/p>\n

It is a heartwarming exploration of friendship and life. It will make you cry, think, feel but above all it will make you laugh.<\/p>\n
