I'm directing!

It's official -- 84 Charing Cross Road has been selected for the next Bare Bones!  My blurb:

In 1949, a struggling young New York playwright sent a letter inquiring about second-hand books to an antiquarian book store in London. So began a 20-year friendship between Helene Hanff and the booksellers at 84, Charing Cross Road. Taken from their actual letters, this story will amuse you, charm you, and send you running to your nearest library.

It's a really sweet and funny show, and I can't wait to see it brought to life in front of an audience.

Auditions are on March 15, and the show will be one night only, Thursday April 19, so mark your calendars now, or better yet, go sign up to audition!

Woo Hoo!

I put the date in my calendar.

I dunno about auditioning. maybe? Probably if I were going to audition for a staged reading it would not be in the three weeks before open studios, though.

Although it's been about a bajillion years, I'm tempted to audition. A staged read is actually something I could handle time-wise very easily.

Congratulations! Sounds like an interesting play.

I'm strongly considering auditioning for this! I worked on this show (as an ASM) years ago; it's really quite wonderful and poignant.
