Auditions are Dec. 13, 14 with possible callbacks on Dec. 15. All start at 7pm.
Director: Theresa Benyo Marzullo
Producer: Kourtney Daugherty
Debora Zoe Laufer's amusing story of a mother who believes The Rapture is at hand, a husband who hasn't shed his pajamas in years, their 'goth' daughter, and her nerdy admirer. An intriguing and unusual play in which Jesus, Stephen Hawking, and the mysteries of the universe all play a part.
A unique script with many funny, yet touching, moments as the four main characters battle through their own personal challenges. The director is seeking actors that can play up the funny moments without being caricatures.
