MEET & GREET: An Evening of One Acts
MEET & GREET: An Evening of One Acts is a trio of sharp, satirical plays that pull back the curtain on the chaos, comedy, and cultural tension of life in the audition room. From a gospel singer who’s never heard of Hamilton, to a darkly absurd job interview, to four aging actresses in an all-out brawl for a sitcom role, this evening of one acts delivers a riotous ride through the highs and humiliations of showbiz.
The plays:
•Hamilton Audition by Susan Lambert Hatem — Award-winning playwright, producer, and director — A well-meaning white director tries to cast an all-female Hamilton, but she doesn’t know enough Black women to fill the roles.
•The Job Interview by Don Zolidis — One of the most produced playwrights in American school theater — Two candidates endure an increasingly bizarre and soul-crushing job interview.
•Meet & Greet by Stan Zimmerman (two-time Writers Guild of America Award winner for Best Comedy Episode, The Golden Girls and Roseanne) & Christian McLaughlin (Married... With Children, Desperate Housewives) — Four actresses collide at a sitcom audition where old rivalries ignite and comic chaos erupts.
