The second in our New Works Readings series: Auditioning for Eternity, written by Coni Koepfinger and Dan Carter with Direction by Liz Piccoli.
Roommates and closest of friends in their salad days, actors Vera Coyle and Hope Diamond have been estranged for half a century. In her deathbed fever dream, Vera conjures up the recently deceased Hope to find closure and make a peaceful transition. Along the way, Hope encounters Edwin Booth and Helen Hayes who tantalize her with the possibility of a vibrant afterlife. If Hope can help her friend leave guilt and fear behind, together they will transcend to a creative eternity in the Bardo Theatre.
