Our piece is called My Baby's Coming Home. This piece discusses love, relationships, family, and war; and the way life can shift and change when you aren't looking.

The world can be a cruel place, so it is all the more important to embrace it when it's loving and kind. This show stars four characters: Beth, James, Henry, and Jess, and we are looking for actors who can show emotional vulnerability and honesty in their acting, as well as actors with the ability to make strong choices. We cannot wait to work with you!
