PORTLAND – “One More Thing,” Michael Parent’s one-man show will be presented at St. Lawrence Arts & Community Center in Portland on Jan. 12-15.

Directed by David Kaye, it portrays Jean-Paul Boisvert, a retired Franco-American mill worker who is trying to get back into the ballgame of his life after the death of his beloved wife. Now, on his 67th birthday, he watches sports on TV, colorfully berating his beloved Red Sox and Bruins. He sings old French songs, fields phone calls from his children and other family members, and ponders his fragile health and mortality. He also tells stories, some funny, others poignant, as he struggles to resolve a major piece of unfinished emotional business.

“One More Thing” addresses various issues, including aging, grief and loss, class consciousness, generational conflict, the connection between work and self-worth, and Franco-American culture and identity.

Shows are Thursday at 7:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m. Admission: $12, $10 for students and seniors. Call (207) 775-5568, ext. 103.The play is suitable for adults and young people high-school age and older.
