This coming of age comedy-drama depicts the backyard world of childhood, with its bullies and victims, leaders and outsiders, brats and tattle-tales, friendships and sibling interchanges, and of course, the games. As the children play, we watch as they suffer the indignities of name-calling, learning responsibility, and trying to fit in.

Sadly, I just found out that the actress that I had cast in the role of ‘Lenny’ in CRIMES OF THE HEART has to drop the role for personal reasons. I am going to miss working with her. However, that has opened up a part in the show.
Here are the particulars: Rehearsals begin with a read-thru on March 10, Tuesday in a rehearsal facility in Oakley. Show opens May 9, Saturday in Sharonville. Rehearsals divided into modified French Scenes (entrances only), and will be held, in general, TU-TH-FR at 7p, and SU at 2p.
The actress will not need to be at all rehearsals until some time in April when we start working full acts, but will need to be available for 4-6 Rehearsals in March. Playing age is 30. Stagecrafters is the producing theatre. I am posting this here, mainly because I do not know who is working in what shows.
The person in the role will have to be committed primarily to this show (meaning not having other show conflicts…I know you all think you can do it, but I would rather not have to worry about it).. Please PM me or email at morehead71@gmail.com if interested

BUZZER
Presented by Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park
March 21-April 19
Eden Park
Directed by Timothy Douglas
Cast: Eric Lynch as Jackson, Alec Shaw as Don & Carly Zen as Suzy
Jackson, a young black lawyer, can’t wait to flaunt his success when he moves back to the rapidly gentrifying neighborhood of his youth with his girlfriend Suzy and troubled best friend Don, both white. While the trio grapples with the racial and sexual tensions simmering inside and outside their apartment, Jackson also struggles with the opposition between what he used to be and what he’s become in this compelling, thought-provoking and darkly funny new play.
