When Irish playwright Lennox Robinson wrote "The Whiteheaded Boy" in the 1910s, he meant for the 2g the 14th annual MS 150 Bike Tour, held Sept. 18-19.

Th/d# %% ney will help proves. Murfi goes from an angry, red-faced George to the dainty, soft-spoken Jane in a blink.

The only other cast member is Louis Lovett, as Denis the white-headed boy. The Geoghegans have rested their future on Denis, who returns home after flunking his medical exams. The plot revolves around the plots by family members to get Denis married and employed so their lives will be easier.

Unlike the other characters, Denis is not dressed in shades of gray. From the very beginning, he's decked out in a cream-colored suit with a bright red vest. His hair is not cut short like the others', but flows in long blond locks. But by the play's end, Denis becomes like all the others -- marked by his donning a gray jacket of his own.

"The Whiteheaded Boy," a delightful comedy-drama, will be presented again at 2 p.m. today at the Lied Center.
