w:st="on"><st1:PlaceType w:st="on">University</st1:PlaceType> of <st1:PlaceName
w:st="on">Idaho Professor Emeritus</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> of Theatre, is
working with <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Sirius Idaho Theatre</span></i>
to bring this production to the Palouse. Sears, in speaking about his former
student Bruce Gooch, says, “Bruce’s new play, <i><span
style='font-style:italic'>Random Acts of Love</span></i>, is the most romantic,
gripping and compelling of all his many fine scripts. For lovers of
Shakespeare, it is a must. For those new to the bard, it will lure you into his
works like nothing else I know.”</span></font></p>

style='font-weight:bold'>.</span></b> Having had the audacity to age, Victoria
Daniels, played by Vogt, has been “let go” from her daytime drama.
She ditches trash-for-cash television and agrees to star in a two-character
play of Shakespeare’s greatest hits called <i><span style='font-style:
italic'>The Seven Ages of Love</span></i>. Confident in this decision for
herself and her children, she runs head long into her co-star, Russell Thomas,
played by Gooch, an actor with whom she had a passionate affair fifteen years
earlier. They battle and brawl their way through rehearsals, threatening to
ruin the show. <i><span style='font-style:italic'>Random Acts of Love</span></i>
links the past and present into a love story about the theatre, Shakespeare and
second chances.</p>
