AUDITION NOTICE
 
What You Do In The Dark…
Adapted from the novel for the stage by Deborah (Marbury) McDaniel
 
Directed by Deborah McDaniel
 
Auditions will run from Monday, October 19, 2009 until Saturday, November 14, 2009. Weekday auditions are Monday, Tuesday, and Friday from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturdays from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Interested parties must call 216-544-9798 or email Deborah McDaniel (carenboogerton at yahoo.com) for an appointment. 
 
Rehearsals will begin on Tuesday, Dec 1, 2009.
 
The show is to be rehearsed for a videotaped performance on Saturday, March 6, 2010 and Saturday, March 13, 2010. A one-woman stageplay performance will be scheduled for Friday, June 4, 11, 18 and 25, 2010. Only two actors will perform in June. The rest of the cast will be videotaped in March.
 
The plot centers on the main character of the novel, Caren Boogerton, who is contemplating suicide ten years after the events of the novel. So, she prays to ask God for help. He sends an angel, MC Love and a demon comes along to antagonize, DJ Hate. The two spiritual beings host a TV Talk Show from the spirit realm where they reacquaint Caren with the events of her past (from the novel). MC Love’s goal is to help Caren learn from her past, but DJ Hate’s goal is to make Caren feel condemned because of her past. This stageplay promises to be an innovative approach to an inspirational message and to theatre as well.
