We open at the end of February. It's a quick turn around....so lots of work for me!

Just audition? Forgive my naivet?© on the subject, but it's definitely a passion I can't let fall away. Also, do they use set designers/artists too? Thanks for the tips and advice!

I did Taming of the Shrew in high-school, myself, in one of the less memorable roles.

Carter... did you happen to do Trumpet in the Land in my backyard? It has been running continuously here for decades.
When I went over to pick up the phone, the audience tithered and continued tithering through my "conversation" with my uncle. I began to wonder what was wrong, the phone had stopped ringing on cue, so that wasn't it. I glanced down to see if my clothes were still on, up and around to see if a set piece or light gel had fallen, all the while talking on the phone.
Then, I spotted it: the prop man had forgotten to attach the end of the telephone cord to the table, so the cord was dangling out in mid-air for all to see. I looked down at it, frowned, by now the audience was chuckling even more, knowing that I now knew.
