SUMMARY:Comic Potential
DESCRIPTION:Written By: Alan Ayckbourn \nCreative Team: Directed by Greg Elliott \n\nIn the near future\, former film maker Chandler ‘Chance’ Tate is directing a banal television soap. Actoids have replaced human actors and one\, Jacie\, appears to have a glitch as she keeps breaking into laughter. Filming is interrupted by high powered executive Carla Pepperbloom and the TV magnate Lester Trainsmith’s nephew Adam. Adam is a writer\, a dying breed\, and idolizes the work of Chance. When Adam is left in the studio\, he runs an old Busker movie and Jacie begins to laugh. Adam begins to teach her the basics of comedy leading to Jacie doing a double-take when filming on the soap resumes. Initially sceptical\, Chance talks to Adam about Jacie and the art of comedy and demonstrates her talent for the job. Clandestinely\, the pair agree to work on a comedy film with Jacie. She is given freedom to improvise and under Chance’s tutelage begins to learn more. \nThe mute Leister Trainsmith arrives with Carla and Jacie’s comedy scene is shown. Carla tears it apart and Chance loses his temper. Carla continues to insist on changes and finds herself on the receiving end of a custard pie from Jacie. Lester laughs and approves the film but orders Jacie to be scrapped. Carla returns order the studio closed. Jacie initially doesn’t mind being scrapped but after she and Adam dance and kiss\, she realizes she doesn’t want to ‘die’. \nAdam and Jacie go on the run and check in at the Grand Hotel\, go shopping and have a meal – with unforeseen results. Back in their room\, Adam uses a Bible to teach Jacie to read. Unfortunately\, Jacie has been tracked and Adam sends her a cheap ‘hotel’ to hide\, although she is becoming increasing unstable and distressed as she begins to feel real emotions. Adam returns but is stabbed by a pimp who believes Jacie is a prostitute. Jacie over-powers him\, but distraught that Adam has been injured\, she returns to the studio. \nAt the studio\, Carla is revealed to leaked Jacie’s story to the press and Lester proves not to be a mute\, firing Carla. He offers Jacie Carla’s job\, but Jacie is still confused and decides to be scrapped. Adam returns from the hospital and is given bad news by Chance. As he mourns his loss\, Jacie appears and admits she couldn’t go through with being scrapped. The lovers are reunited\, but Jacie looks set to be harder taskmaster than Carla in her new role…. \n\nInformation Session: \n\nAudition Information: www.blackwood.players@gmail.com \n\n\n\nAudition Information #:0\n\n\nDate:\n20/10/2024\n\n\nTime From – Time to:\n1.00pm – 5.00pm\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nCharacter Descriptions #:0\n\n\nRole Name:\nAll roles are available\n\n\nGender:\nUndefined\n\n\nStage Age:\n\n\n\nRole Information:\nJCF 31333 Jacie Triplethree\n20’s – 30’s.
