[Chagrin Valley Little Theatre via NEohioPAL]

*CHAGRIN VALLEY LITTLE THEATRE seeks director for 85th Season Production*

Seeking a director for our RIVER STREET PLAYHOUSE to direct a play which 
will run October 17 - November 1, 2014. /River Street Playhouse 
productions are 100% voluntary. The director receives no compensation. 
/The selected director will choose one of the following options:

      * *END DAYS* by Deborah Zoe Laufer, 2 acts, setting: a family
        kitchen/den; cast: Evangelicalmother convinced the rapture is at
        hand, a depressed father who lounges about in pajamas he hasn't
        changed in three years, a rebellious atheistic and somewhat
        Gothic daughter, and her nerdy admirer who trails after her. Mom
        is occasionally accompanied by Jesus and Stephen Hawking (seen
        by the audience). The nerd introduces mother to Hawking; she
        becomes enamored of his theories. Perhaps his astral musings
        will save them all. Or will it be the rapture?
        *or*
      * *HOW THE WORLD BEGAN* by Catherine Trieschmann, one-act (54pp.),
        setting: a makeshift school room in a trailer; 1M (60s), 1W
        (30s-40s), 1 boy (16). This play won some acclaim off-Broadway
        at The Women's Project. A pregnant woman from NYC travels to a
        teaching job in rural Kansas after a tornado. A casual remark
        regarding the origins of life strikes sparks in one boy who lost
        his family in the storm and who now lives with another family
        headed by a man who considers himself the boy's father and/or
        guardian but is neither. Both man and traumatized boy demand an
        apology of the teacher, who is not about to give it. A cross
        dressed in a gorilla costume is burned in front of the teacher's
        home. The town is up in arms about the whole affair. Tense
        scenes overloaded with accusations and recriminations follow.
        Strong stuff with an abrupt and fairly surprising end.
