Marian Tongier
Marian admits to having been an analyst at NSA but won’t expand on that. She did say an injury forced her retirement and arriving at Charlestown in the 1990’s she found her way to the LTC and the play selection committee. She was a great fit because she is deliciously witty, is a keen observer of people, and has a distinctive voice that is reminiscent of comedian Sel- ma Diamond. Finding age-appropriate plays for our commu- nity was difficult so she turned to writing skits and plays which featured characters our audiences could relate to. Her most recent plays performed by LTC were Martha’s Party, The Riverview Rest Home, and now, Tuesday Foursome
