What's
a staged reading? A reading of the play with minimal blocking and only
two rehearsals and a performance! Perfect for those who would like to
be on stage but can't invest the time required for a full production.
About the show: Is
there a bigger group of psychotics and sociopaths than nursery rhyme
characters? Read some nursery rhymes — you know it’s true! That makes
heinous crimes, such as the tragic case of Humpty Dumpty, quite
difficult to solve. Detective Green and the Punnish Sir (Yes, he’s
always scrambling for egg puns!) have been called in to investigate a
crime scene where a Mister Humpty Dumpty has been found shattered and
fowl play is suspected. They have one hour to solve the crime — the
same time frame as a typical Law and Order episode,
minus commercials. Can they do it? The yolk’s on you if you think
this hilarious tongue-in-cheek play is only for young children. There
are so many puns and plot twists in this comic romp, even the
playwrights were surprised by the ending!
Auditions: Tuesday, April 14 from 7:00 until 9:00 at Jackson's First Presbyterian Church, 743 W Michigan Avenue, Jackson. No preparation necessary.
Performance: Saturday, May 9, 1:00, Jackson Symphony Orchestra Building.
