Synopsis
Two on the Aisle, Three in a Van
Published by Samuel French Inc
6 Male 4 Female
Welcome to another stellar season at the Neighborhood Actors Summerfun Repertory Theatre, a friendly little playhouse where, due to a lack of wing space, the company spends their downtime in the parking lot around an aging hippie/now turned techie's van
Those looking for refuge at the asphalt oasis include ...
... a stressed-out artistic director grappling for funding
... a wanna-be diva who's realizing her ingenue expiration date has just about passed
... a board member's nephew vying to direct the musicals with a Tarrentino spin
And the "I'm no chorus boy" chorus boy who thinks every show should have a kick line - including Glass Menagerie
These are just some of the egos and obstacles that fall into the lap of Mike, a nice-guy director who ends up with far more than he bargained for
This 90 minute up-beat comedy celebrates the unsung heroes who call the show, man the spotlights, sew the costumes, count the tickets and suffer through every flubbed line, forgotten prop and missed cue
Anyone who's ever seen a show may know these people
Anyone who's ever done a show may be these people

"An amusing, energetic jolt that skewers pretentious concept directors yet has a soft spot for actors and technicians" ~ Backstage
