Call For Actors for dramatic readings of new full-length play by Randy Ford at El Ojito Springs Center for Creativity. 

The readings will be held on three nights: May 24-26. 

 

Name of play Daddy's Party.  The play is about an estranged family reunited by the imminent death of an abusing and molesting father.  Some cling to denial; but others seek closure, forgiveness, and answers to the possible murder of a sister.  All end up discovering the old man's love for them.  All of the siblings and mother have substantial roles. 

 

 Characters:  A chance for young actors to play older people

               Dr. Johnson  father, in his eighties, dying, dies.  (None speaking)

               Jude, sibling, thirty-nine

               Olga, Jude's wife, in her twenties

               Sherman, Sally's husband 

               Nurse (small part so the actor might also be responsible for stage directions.)
