Still Photos, which opens next Friday, June 27, at Trap Door Theatre, is very different from plays I've done previously.
It's a love story (which usually appeals to the ladies) about two women (which might appeal to the men. Yes, guys, there will be two young women making out on stage.) It's got romance, history, brave men fighting WWII, and a grandma. That would be me: the grandma.
Hope you can come out and see the show, and see me sitting in my rocker speaking with an irritating New York accent!
The show runs June 27 - July 27.
Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 p.m.
Sundays at 2:00 p.m.
Trap Door Theatre in Chicago
1655 W. Cortland (near Ashland and Armitage)
Tickets are $15, but mention the podcast (http://www.pointofcontention.org/) and you'll get a discount!
Cheers!

Carol Stops Traffic in Romeoville
Greetings Fans!
If you were in the southern suburbs today, you may have encountered unusually heavy traffic around Weber Rd. and I-55. Carol was appearing at the 7-Eleven at Weber and Normantown Roads, and motorists lined-up for miles to see her. Well, they may have also been interested in the FREE GAS that Hershey was giving away from 7am - 9am-- but I am sure that was probably secondary. You can read about the Hershey promotion here.
The event was covered by the Daily Herald here, and on the WBBM Newsradio site here. (I especially like some of the comments at the bottom of the articles. I guess not everyone was excited about seeing Carol... or the free gas.) There were also brief mentions on NBC 5 (you can view a slide show here) and CBS 2 evening news in Chicago... although oddly enough, they seemed to focus on the free gas rather than on Carol's appearance.

Overproof
Jeff Garretson threatens to commit suicide in Overproof.While Carol's performance in Overproof is finished, the production has just begun. Most of the shooting was done on green screen, as the movie takes place in the middle of a busy street. Since it was not possible to film in an actual street, the background will be digitally added. Above is a production photo, and below is an early composite with the background.
Carol tries to talk Jeff out of killing himself in the middle of the street.
