I wanted to thank all of you for your support around my current theatrical project Maria's Field. This role was a challenge for me but I feel good about where I am and proud of the work. I am looking forward to seeing how this rich role grows through me over the run.
In case you'd like to see them, I'm posting some reviews (all positive thus far - woo-hoo!) and photos below.

Finally there is this article from a Russian paper called Reklama. Though it is in Russian, someone sent us a translation which I found very flattering. In case it's not clear "Dzhenifer Bayers" is me. I have included ( the full text behind this cut:) )
Taken by the very talented John Sisson, here are some ( whacky production photos )

TUTA Theatre Chicago Hosts Reading of Russian National Postal Service by Oleg Bogaev
At 12 noon, Saturday, January 24th, TUTA headquarters are getting a whole lot more interesting. To help us celebrate TUTA's Chicago premier of Maria's Field, in association with Chicago DCA Theater, playwright Oleg Bogaev will be coming all the way in from Russia. As an added bonus, TUTA is presenting a staged reading of Bogaev's internationally acclaimed one act play: Russian National Postal Service, a rollicking and heartbreaking story of a lonely pensioner and the historical, popular, and other worldly figures of his imaginary correspondences. The reading, featuring actor Gary Houston, will be followed by a discussion with Oleg Bogaev, the award winning gem of the Russian theater scene, about his work, his experiences, and the state of the art. Coffee and treats will be served up with this delightful event, and admission is FREE.
