Trying
a drama based on a true story by Joanna McClelland Glass
directed by Geoff Gruson

Audition: Sunday, October 24 at 1 pm
Production  dates: Jan 4 - 22

Trying is the story of the internationally known Francis Biddle, Attorney General under President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Chief Judge of the Nuremberg trials. The play is set in 1967 when Biddle is 81 years old and trying to put his life in order. Elegant, but sharply cantankerous, he struggles with the inevitability of his age and failing health. His wife has forced upon him a new secretary named Sarah, who is all of 25 years old, and the two struggle to find a way to communicate. This richly scripted story illustrates how two strangers, at two dramatically different places in their lives, can unexpectedly and forever influence each other.

2 actors - 1 male - 1 female
Ages should reflect the above play description as close as possible
