Mercy Performing Arts was honored to have Tracy Wells, playwright of the fall production "Angels of Bataan," come to talk to the cast and crew. What a great opportunity to stage the World Premiere of this piece! The students were able to learn about the history, inspiration, and writing process. They asked questions regarding the play itself and their characters.
