The backstage walls at Germinal Stage-Denver are lined with quotes from previous stagings. Here, Erica Sarzin-Borrillo has written a personal farewell to the Germinal Stage building in a note that speaks to her present alter ego, Mary Tyrone. It reads, in part: “Last chapter I will have lived in this theater is Mary Tyrone! May we live brilliantly if not happily! May we move and bless each witness, and let O’Neill live on through us.”
