Editor reviews

Cindy Hardin Killavey gives an engaging performance of O. Henry’s short story “The Skylight Room”. At a rooming house, landlady Mrs. Parker shows potential renters rooms, beginning with the most expensive, which are usually inhabited by a doctor or a dentist. A young woman named Miss Leeson cannot afford one of the nicer quarters so must rent a tiny room situated on the fourth floor next to a dark lumber closet. Though she is a vivacious person with many admirers, Miss Leeson soon falls on hard times. Will she be rescued from this grim situation?
