Seth Graham is a self-centered senior in high school. His main struggles involve waking up on time, getting a girl to look at him, and being aware of his own shortcomings. Carter Kennedy is an unemployed slacker in his late-20s. His friends are all married and have kids, his parents pay for his apartment rent, and he’s dying of kidney failure. Seth and Carter are cousins. When Seth sees his cousin’s dilemma as an opportunity to prove he’s not as self-centered as he once thought, he offers his kidney to Carter. What follows is the story of two cousins going through the happy, sad, funny, frustrating, and emotional process of an organ transplant while also getting to know one another for the first time. “Kidney Beans” is a comedic drama about family, friends, and maturity.

Auditions will consist of cold- readings from the script
When two college recruiters at a prestigious university need to fill one last spot to keep their jobs, thirteen eccentric, dimwitted and slightly- insane high school seniors are eager to come in for an interview. What seems like a simple task turns into a nightmare when the applicants turn out to be a reality TV star, a practicing vampire, an amateur magician, and others that are much, much worse. Each applicant’s interview hilariously illustrates what NOT to do at a college interview.

Little Women Adapted by Marisha Chamberlain
This is a One Act version, not the full musical.
Under the guidance of their beloved mother, the four young March sisters — tempestuous Jo, motherly Meg, shy Beth, and spoiled baby Amy — struggle to keep their family going while Father’s away in the Civil War. In this beautifully dramatized adaptation of the classic novel, even as privation, illness, and sibling rivalry cast their shadows, each girl strives to find her true self.
Cast requirements: 5 Teen Girls 12-18, 2 Teen Boys 15-18, 1 Woman 30-40, 1 Woman 40-50, 1 Man 30-40, 1 Man 50-60s
