LOVE! WANT!

You couldn't do the Soldier recalling the Battle of Yonkers? Sheesh. That's my favorite part of the book.

But this looks to be one awesome show.

Dude. I tried. I tried so hard, but the cut just wasn't working... If this project goes well, I'm VERY interested in doing a longer version, and that would mean longer monologues, and his would be one of them.

Still looking for people! They are just five min monologues for awesome people!

[Heidi.N.Rogers]

Um... yeah!

[SarahMarie]

As I mentioned to Heidi WHEN SHE SO BRAVELY REQUESTED TO AUDITION: This is a great chance to do some super sweet and easy scripted work!

These are "story telling" monologues: Poignant stories told to the audience about the personal horrors experienced during a zombie apocalypse that decimated the earths population 12 years ago.

So don't be scared! I'm gentle, and would love to give out imps the opportunity to show this world.

[Justin D.]

Oh, and for the uninitiated, you don't have to be a fan of zombie stories to like this book. Even if I didn't like zombie stories, I'd still think World War Z was one of the best books I've ever read.

I would love to try my hand at auditioning for the narrator part.

If I can get up and share what I did during How Improv Saved My Life with poise and self-assurance, I might be able to do this.

This is awesome that you're doing this! Will try to make it to the show and maybe audition for a role when it grows!
