ACTORS
Be a part of this exciting evening of new works. Be the first to publicly perform these playwrights’ work. There is no prep necessary. Our process is designed to ensure your immediate response/interpretation, so we meet right before the reading to run over the plays quickly. Then we read them for the audience and the playwrights. This way the playwrights learn what is actually in their scripts as opposed to, say… what they thought was there. Contact me to get on the list of actors. Being on the list does not guarantee you a spot. Logistics of casting numbers determine whom we can use. Contact me to sign-up. Bekka Eaton-  eatonrl@miamioh.edu

OVER THE RIVER AND THROUGH THE WOODS, by: Joe DiPietro
Full Length Play, Comedy / 3m, 3f

Nick is a single, Italian-American guy from New Jersey. His parents retired and moved to Florida. That doesn’t mean his family isn’t still in Jersey. In fact, he sees both sets of his grandparents every Sunday for dinner. This is routine until he has to tell them that he’s been offered a dream job. The job he’s been waiting for—marketing executive—would take him away from his beloved, but annoying, grandparents. He tells them. The news doesn’t sit so well. Thus begins a series of schemes to keep Nick around. How could he betray his family’s love to move to Seattle, for a job, wonder his grandparents? Well, Frank, Aida, Nunzio and Emma do their level best, and that includes bringing to dinner the lovely—and single—Caitlin O’Hare as bait…we won’t give the ending away here.
