Roles are still available for Premier Production of ³Home Sweet Homeland.²

Don¹t miss a once in a lifetime opportunity to work alongside Broadway
professionals in the new play ³Home Sweet Homeland² at Lorain County
Community College¹s Stocker Arts Center. Tony Award nominated
director/choreographer Lynne Taylor-Corbett will direct the production.
This opportunity comes with a very limited time commitment (see below)!  The
audition deadline has been extended to December 22.

Broadway actors Robert Cuccioli and Erin Leigh Peck have been cast to play
two roles in the play. Cuccioli was the star of ³Jeckyll and Hyde² on
Broadway and is currently appearing in ³A Moon to Dance By² at the George
Street Playhouse. Peck is currently starring in ³The Toxic Avenger²
off-Broadway, and was previously in ³Brighton Beach Memoirs² on Broadway.

Playwright and actress Joanna Rush wrote the play based on her experiences
on and following September 11, 2001. Living in an apartment across the
street from the World Trade Center, Rush saw the world she knew crumble.

³Home Sweet Homeland² follows five neighbors through the events of that day
­ from the attack, to their evacuation and eventual return to or abandonment
of their homes at Ground Zero. All are devastated and full of doubt about
the world and each other. What is the truth? At what cost will the truth be
uncovered? What is ³safe²? Will we ever laugh again? Together, a young boy,
a musician, a financial analyst and a couple of comediennes stumble through
the pathways of mind and heart to seek the truth and find their way back to
trust and laughter.
