Everybody's in love, nobody trusts anybody, and morale is catastrophic.

Sounds like the setup for a sitcom..or the background to our next 19 Chairs reading! We're still not giving it away, but if you've got any ideas of what it might be, let us know in the comments! Either way, be sure to RSVP TODAY to join us on June 12 at 6:30 p.m. at Unity Gardens Inc. for our next 19 Chairs reading!

A tragic romance! A war epic! A cynical comedy! A philosophical roast of humanity!

THIS WEEKEND!

Announcing the official character list for our upcoming production of Friedrich Dürrenmatt's "The Physicists." Auditions are this Sunday and Monday! Directed by Brittany Gardner-Kennel and produced by Shades of Orange, "The Physicists" is set in an insane asylum with three men who all believe themselves to be famous thinkers from history. But there's more going on in this asylum than mere madness. In fact, things around here may be more sane than anyone was expecting.

Auditions for "The Physicists" are Sunday, March 22 at 2:00 p.m. and Monday, March 23 at 6:00 p.m. at OneRoof Southeast - Southeast Neighborhood Center, with callbacks on Wednesday, March 25 at 6:00 p.m. No preparation needed, just sign up at the link below!

A small stipend will be provided to all actors cast.
