Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: Martin Giles has been sitting down on the job lately, and with very good reason. The director is recovering from recent surgery, which took place in the midst of rehearsals for Pittsburgh Irish & Classical Theatre's "A Skull in Connemara."
Removal of a cyst on his neck in early August revealed the presence of cancer, and his doctor said surgery to remove lymph nodes could not wait. He missed eight days of the 41/2-week prep before previews begin today. Not knowing if he could return to work, he gave way to artistic director Alan Stanford before Mr. Giles' doctor gave him the green light.
