Hi there SDS crew!

We still need 1 male actor for tomorrow's reading series hosted by _gaia in
Frank Sinatra Park.  Please call me ASAP if at all interested.  The Play is
Once Removed and it is about 8 mins long.  No rehearsal is required, just
meeting early to familiarize before the reading (approximately 5:30pm)
 This is a great way to keep up cold reading skills and besides all that
it's going to be fun!  These are great plays!  Even if you're not an actor
come on down and check it out at 6:30pm tomorrow evening if you are free. :)

Press Release:
