'Mercy and the Firefly' a study in overcoming obstacles

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "Were it not for supportive friends, Amy Hartman's 'Mercy and the Firefly' might never have been.
The tale of homecoming, redemption and forgiveness opens Thursday as a production of The Rep, Point Park University's professional theater company.
It began life as a 10-minute play written and staged for one of Bricolage's annual B.U.S. (Bricolage Urban Scrawl) Festivals that take plays from the first scriptless meeting of writers, directors and performers to first performance in 24 hours.
'I really liked it and decided to turn it into a full-length play,' Hartman says.
