Thank you!

Nora: (age 45 +, minimal combat) The matriarch of the family.  Nora lives in her own idyllic world where she calmly ignores the problems of her family.  She is a June Cleaver type with a darker edge.

Elizabeth: (age 25-40, extensive combat) Nora's eldest daughter.  She is fiercely independent with an anger management problem.  She is a lawyer campaigning against police brutality.  She is easily frustrated, but dee down has a great love for her family.

Mary Ann:  (age 20-35, medium combat) Nora's second daughter.  She has problems making connections with people, including her own baby.  She retreats from conflict and tries to solve all problems by cooking for others.  She struggles to find her individuality.

Gail: (age 18-25, medium combat) Nora's youngest daughter.  She is the most street-wise of the 3 girls and perhaps the least messed up.  She is married to Junior and has a new baby and is struggling to keep her family safe.

Junior: (age 18-30, extensive combat) Gail's husband.  He is a bit of a follower and a pushover.  Gail and Tom want him to get a backbone and try as he might, he never quite succeeds.  The play opens with Junior having been severly beaten.

Tom: (age 45 +, moderate combat) Nora's husband.  A former cop, Tom tried to burn the house down with his family inside several years ago and then disappeared.  He has since returned, but appears to be a frail, broken man who needs supervision and care, however, not all is as it seems.  Nora refers to him as "the man upstairs."

Mike: (age 35 +, moderate combat) A cop and Tom's former partner.  He and Tom were once part of the "good 'ol boys" system and he has an old fashioned approach to police work.  He can seem to be a bit shady at times.  He is investigating Junior's assault.

Dian: (age 25 +, moderate combat) Mike's partner.  She is devoted to the police force and has an odd compulsion involving lip balm.

Rolly: (age 35 +, extensive combat)  A typical low-life street urchin.  His business is porn.  He and his son pedal there merchandise around the neighborhood.  He is a timid, unintelligent man who is trying to survive the best way he can.

Stevie: (age 18 +, extensive combat) Like his father, Rolly, Stevie suffers from a lack of intelligence.  He cares deeply for his father and results to crime because it is the only thing he knows.

Thanks to all who auditioned!

Do you itemize on your federal income tax? Contributions to Olde Towne Dinner Theatre's Building Fund are deductible to the full extent allowed by law. Now's a good time to make a contribution. The year is waning and you'll be counting up your deductions before you know it. No matter how much you give, the theatre is grateful for your contribution. When you itemize, the only limit is that your charitable contributions cannot exceed 50 percent (half) of your adjusted gross income.

Give a Gift; Skip the Taxes

Did you know that Uncle Sam takes a share when you sell stock? If the value has increased substantially and you’ve had the stock for more than a year, you would end up paying capital gains taxes when you sell. We’ve got an alternative in mind. Give your stock away. The long-term capital gains tax rate for appreciated stock is around 15 percent on your profit. Sell it yourself, and you’ll still have to pay the tax, even if you give the proceeds away. But if you give the stock itself to Olde Towne Dinner Theatre, you can claim a charitable deduction for the full value of the stock at the time of donation and avoid paying capital gains taxes, too.

Please remember Olde Towne Dinner Theatre in your financial planning.
