Ethan Siegel is in love with Alice. And tonight he’s going to ask her parents for permission to marry her. There are just a few problems — Ethan and Alice broke up two years ago, she’s in a serious relationship with someone else, and Alice has completely moved on with her life. But Ethan is undaunted,aiming to win over Alice in myriad ways.

No experience or preparation is necessary to audition. Pages from the script will

be provided. If you would like to familiarize yourself with the script, it is available at valley public libraries.

Gail Cleveland is the director.

As a Black Curtain show, the actors will remain on book during performances and there will be minimal costumes and set.

There will be approximately nine rehearsals and one technical rehearsal Nov. 5. There are two performances Nov. 6 and 7.
