Cover To Cover (Improvised Nancy Drew)

Post by Jules »

Audrey Sansom and I are setting auditions for Cover to Cover ( a long form narrative, in the style of Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys) on Thursday the 25th from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm in the small Theater at SVT.

If you know of interested and especially if you are a "newer" performers who may not have had much mainstage experience, please email me at juliejezebel@gmail. com with their RSVP. Even if you cannot attend the entire "mixer", but are interested please let us know.

Come prepared to play in the style of Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys!

You should call it Hardy Drew and the Nancy Boys.
A gay mystery-solving trio!
Sometimes it's a form of love just to talk to somebody that you have nothing in common with and still be fascinated by their presence.
