Susan Dubuque of Richmond, Va., is convinced of the benefits. Her son Nick went through "seven years of testing hell." At seven, ADHD was diagnosed and he was put on Ritalin. "When he was 10 years old, he didn't want a birthday party because he just couldn't deal with it," she recalls. Then, his mother says, Nick "bottomed out and became suicidal, and one day I found him in a closet with a toy gun pointed at his head, and he said, 'If this was real, I'd use it.'"

He bounces around the stage in a fury of guilt and reproach as the valiant Richmond moves to retake the throne.

Boston audiences should be flocking to hear every artist in the Celebrity Series Aaron and Ann Richmond piano recitals--do not miss next year's season, which will begin around October...
