On a seemingly normal evening, we meet Thelma Cates (Mama), an aging mother and widow who lives with her daughter, Jessie. Jessie is the divorced mother of a hoodlum son, who – unsatisfied and depressed – struggles with life as an unemployed epileptic. On this night, Jessie comes into the room asking her mother about the whereabouts of her father’s old revolver. When Jessie finds it in the attic, she confesses to her mother that she is going to kill herself. Tonight. At first, Mama laughs it off, thinking Jessie is just making a sick joke. But, as Jessie makes her way around the house, organizing, making lists, and teaching Mama her responsibilities, it soon becomes clear that it is not. As Mama pleads for Jessie to reconsider her decision, old secrets are revealed and long-ignored feelings rise to the surface. The mother-daughter bond between Jessie and Mama becomes stronger and lovelier than ever, making it possible for Jessie to end her noisy, cluttered existence, and enter a quieter, calmer life with closure and love.
Next up, we have open auditions for the 1st show of our 2019-2020 Season. The show is “Outward Bound”. It was written by Sutton Vane and will be directed by Susan O’Connell.

All auditions begin at 7:00 PM
Performance dates are September 20, 21, 22, 27, 28 & 29, 2019 @ RHP in Hemet
The audition will consist of cold readings from the script. Please come prepared with a resume, headshot, pen/pencil, and a list of conflicts.
PLOT:
An odd assortment of characters are passengers on an ocean liner, but no one can remember where they’re headed. The lovers have a secret that no one can know; the society lady can’t accept that there is only one class on board and she has to share a table with a low-brow charwoman for dinner; the young man drinks too much but sees through everything, and the mysterious ship steward seems to be the only crew member. When it’s revealed that the ocean liner is headed for Judgment Day, each person plots to ensure a heavenly afterlife. But the Examiner who decides their fate is not willing to bargain. Outward Bound explores mortality and morality with light touches of social commentary and gallows humor.
We are looking for 6 males and 3 females. Parts range from ages in early 20’s to 60+. Click on the link for more details about the parts.
