*Synopsis: *Cindy and Karen, who are sisters, share a home. Even with their
combined incomes, they can't quite make ends meet. It is suggested that
they rent a room to a boarder to make some extra dollars. An interesting
and strange lady answers their ad and the sisters offer her the room. She
has a few odd requests for her at-home, mysterious, business. Oh, and she
has a cat.

Auditions will be held via Zoom on Tuesday, 9/15 and Thursday, 9/17
beginning at 7:30 pm. The director will ask auditionees to read part of the
script for your character. Sign up for an audition:

your theater resume and headshot to the director at mlaronson at zoomtown.com by
9/12.

starting on September 21st.
