Sightings: Richard Jay Simon - UPDATED

Richard Jay Simon is the artistic director of Plantation's Mosaic Theatre.

TomorrowSaturday morning, he'll be on WFOR Channel Four to talk about his current project, In Darfur. The critically acclaimed production tells the story of the genocide in Sudan, and one woman's mission to tell the world her story. Tune in to see his segment between 10:00 am and 10:30 am. during the 9:30 segment of the Saturday Morning program. (Richard didn't realize that they were just taping this morning, not going live).

The play has moved Simon to join in the Darfur Fast for Life. He ate his final meal before Thursday night's performance. How long will he remain on the fast?
...my goal is to Sunday...we shall see how long i can hold out for.... folks in Darfur don't have a choice...
This is the final weekend to see In Darfur, at Mosaic Theatre.

Best of luck with the fast, Richard. And more importantly,let's all support the efforts to relieve those suffering in Sudan.
