She is concerned that she is in the way and she is longing to return to her childhood home of Bountiful. With each government check she receives she makes an attempt to go home. She is thwarted each time. Her son is afraid for her safety; her daughter-in-law is afraid she’ll lose the money. Carrie is afraid she may lose herself if she doesn’t get back to Bountiful.

For two days we see into the lives of four desperate Chicago real estate agents as they lie, bribe, betray, flatter, intimidate and even burglarize their way to elusive, illusory success. As they do anything to “win” – selling worthless real estate to unwitting prospective buyers – the men hustle others and fool themselves into thinking that they have what it takes to make an “honest” living.

2016-2017 Season Announced by Dayton Theatre Guild

DTG Dayton Theatre Guild is pleased to announce our 2016/2017 theatre season:

THE LAST LIFEBOAT
by Luke Yankee
Production dates: Aug 19-Sep 4, 2016
Audition dates: Tue & Wed, July 5 & 6, 2016*
Directed by Jeff Sams

Joseph Bruce Ismay, an English businessman who served as chairman and managing director of the White Star Line of steamships becomes the perfect scapegoat for the sinking of the Titanic. Ismay saved as many people as he could, but with no women and children in sight, he stepped into the last lifeboat…and was branded a coward and a traitor forever. This play deals not only with the disaster itself, but the sensationalized trials and aftermath of an event that changed the world forever.

THE OUTGOING TIDE
by Bruce Graham
Production dates: Oct 7-23, 2016
Auditions dates: Mon & Tue, Aug 22 & 23, 2016*
Directed by Kathy Mola

An older couple, Gunner and Peg, live on Chesapeake Bay. Gunner now suffers from Alzheimer’s, and their grown son comes to visit them one autumn to help his mother with decisions that need to be made. Peg wants to move into a senior facility, but Gunner wants to leave his wife and son something other than the bitter memories and resentments he is sure they hold against him. This show contains adult language.

THE UNAVOIDABLE DISAPPEARANCE OF TOM DURNIN
by Steven Levenson
Production dates: Nov 18- Dec 4, 2016
Audition dates: Oct 10 & 11, 2016*
Directed by Margie Strader

Tom Durnin is a disgraced lawyer who returns to his family seeking redemption after serving time in prison for a white-collar crime. He is determined to win back the respect he believes he deserves, even if that means ripping apart the new life his family has so carefully put together in his absence. This play is about the price we pay for defaulting on those we love. This show contains adult language

LUNA GALE
by Rebecca Gilman
Production dates: Jan 20-Feb 5, 2017
Audition dates: Mon & Tue, Nov 21 & 22, 2016*
Directed by Debra Kent

A veteran social worker believes she has a typical case on her hands when she meets two teenaged drug addicts accused of neglecting their baby daughter. She places the six-month-old baby in the care of her maternal grandmother, who requests permanent adoption. Is it better for the child to be reared by a rabidly evangelical grandmother or eventually to be reunited with the rehabilitated parents? This very contemporary play is about moral dilemma, faith and forgiveness. This show contains adult language

THE ELEPHANT MAN
by Bernard Pomerance
Production dates: Mar 17-Apr 2, 2017
Audition dates: Mon & Tue, Jan 23 & 24, 2017*
Directed by David Shough

Joseph Merrick was a 19th century British man who became the star of a traveling freak show circuit because of his physical deformities. When a renowned doctor takes Merrick under his care at London Hospital, he is astonished by Merrick’s brilliant intelligence and unshakable faith. But with Merrick’s new life comes new complexity… and a “normal” existence begins to seem all but impossible. Based on a real-life story, The Elephant Man was first performed in 1979 and recently revived on Broadway.

Along the way, Cass crosses paths with a suicidal alcoholic, a lonely tour-boat captain, a pair of bickering private detectives, and a clown therapist.This show contains adult language.
