But for the Grace...
performed by Bob Jaffe
written & directed by David Eliet
commissioned by the Rhode Island Community Food Bank
38.5 million Americans live with hunger. Not just the faceless homeless, but people from our daily lives: working men and women, children, elderly. Honest, touching, and humorous portrayals evoke laughter and tears, and, most importantly, a call to action. (1h 20m )

“Eliet has managed to strike a nice balance here, telling believable, engaging stories about those who face hunger on a daily basis.
Bob Jaffe is the cast, deftly slipping in and out of characters as diverse as a 7-year-old boy embarrassed by poverty and a widowed immigrant woman.
There are 10 characters in all, and Jaffe manages to put a different and convincing spin on each of them, skillfully swapping voices and body language from part to part.
This is a show that manages to make some important points, but without hitting you over the head with its message.”
