winner of Tri-C’s first Great Lakes Play Competition, <i>Pray for the Missing
Girls</i> is the story of Marion, an award-winning news reporter trying to find
her missing daughter. While working on a story in Juarez, Mexico and remote
Texas, she discovers that, since the beginning of time, far too many innocents
have paid the ultimate price in the name of "commerce" and
"civilization." Auditions will take place September 6<sup>th</sup>

Pleasant Valley Rd. Parma, OH 44130. This production will be

Cummins is a playwright, dramaturge, and occasional theater critic whose
reviews have appeared in the Cleveland Scene. She served for many years
as Literary Manager for Dobama Theatre and now directs the First Mondays play

the Ohio Arts Council in 2004 and two of her plays, Lives of the Saints and
Artemisia, were semi-finalists for the National Playwrights Conference (The
O’Neill) in 2009 and 2011, respectively. In addition to receiving first

for the Missing Girls” was written in the summer of 2004 with the support of an

this an example of what happens when a country tolerates lawlessness against
the poor as long as its middle class is safe? Or is it just about the
growth of the cartels that now openly control the city and many of its police.
Charles Bowden called his collection of essays and photographs, published in
1998, Juarez: Laboratory of our Future. His work calls attention to the
ever-widening gap between the middle class and the poor, the growth of “super
cities” that draw those with no money, no education and no experience of life
outside an agrarian environment, and the growth of an international workforce
for which no one country feels responsible.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
