Theater 136: When He Was Young and Pretty
An older gentleman invites a younger man to his apartment for dinner. As the meal progresses the two discuss the difficulties that each generation has delt with over the years; each contending that their generations has endured the harshest difficulties. As the conversation between the two fades, they acknowledge their similarities and the evening takes on a more
personal tone.

Michael Harvey Fletcher loves to perform whether it be on the stage or on the screen. No part is too large or too small for although he has played heavy hitters like Hamlet and Caligula, he's also played more quirky character bit parts than you can count!
