Wandering down La Brea back in November of 2005, Marcia heard blood-curdling screams from within the Acme Theater. A dedicated intensive care RN and raging co-dependent, Marcia ran inside to help…or to at least give repeated, unsolicited, nagging advice. Although the violence on stage was make-believe, clearly there was mental illness here. Marcia remains at ACME hoping to help heal all the broken lives.
