A little love story about the visible and the invisible. The power of all the people that we love, near or far, and how they come to help us when we most need them.  It’s also a story about having to prove love to somebody else. Oh, and an Indian Goddess. Oh, and the island of Ireland.
 

When it all boils down to it, No Cake is the story of me and the story of you, because at the end of the day we all need to know someone is watching out for us. No matter where in the world we stand, we need to know we are always visibly and invisibly connected.

Fi Connors (Playwright)

Fi Connors is an Irish woman... recently ( enough) relocated to Louisville.... of course for love. It’s always love ......or work! Work or love. Fi has always written (for her own sanity) and has an MA in creative writing that she has never used... at least not in any public way. Her recent foray into plays has been a way to relocate herself into this, her new life in America... almost like being an audience to her own small unfolding drama... until she can get there herself!
