Hello! A showcase of short staged readings takes place this Thursday, 7 to 9pm at Playwrights Local (397 East 156th Street, Cleveland, OH 44110).

This is a free, unpaid, casual event -- a potluck meal will be provided beforehand!

Actors will need to be there by 6:30pm but are free to leave after this specific reading (or stay and watch the rest till 9). You will be provided with a chair and a script to keep in-hand while performing on a bare stage.

"Facing Away From The Sun" is a short one-act that concerns the struggling relationship dynamics between a mother and son on the eve of a major departure. The role descriptions are as follows:

LUCAS, male, 20s-30s, sensitive, quiet determination, needs more sun

VIVIAN, female, 40s-60s, prone to gab, poetic but dry, temperament of a briar

If interested, please email Cameron Pfahler at cameronjpfahler@gmail.com to receive a rough copy of the script to peruse. Thank you!
