Why we like it

"A comedic exploration of life’s quirks and relationships, ideal for actors looking to showcase their comedic abilities."

From: Great Audition Scenes for Two People

Synopsis

Act One: A Need for Brussels Sprouts finds a middle aged actor hoping to land a TV commercial for pizza by playing opera full blast in his apartment while pretending to be the tenor.

Enter the irate lady cop who lives upstairs and intends to give him a summons for disturbing the peace.

They are both lonely and one thing leads to another.

Act Two: A Need for Less Expertise: A couple whose marriage is on the rocks after 26 years have procured a self help audio tape designed to improve their spiritual awareness, their health and their sex life as a last ditch effort to save their marriage.

Press Reviews

"Each encounter contains its quota of Schisgal wackiness and broad satire."
