Posted: 9/22/06 at 6:37pmMy highschool just did this play last year! It's an excellent script, won the Pulitzer Prize I believe. Roughly, it's about this guy who falls in love with a girl, but she has a really crazy family. Penny Sycamore is the mother who is obsessed with sex (haha, I know) and writes many plays, but never finishes them. She is just one of the many eccentric members of the girl's family. Of course the guy's parents are very snobbish and they meet for dinner...and it all unfolds from there. Have fun!

Posted: 9/23/06 at 4:27pmWe recently had auditions for that show and I'm going to be directing it. You have a wonderful role which I'm sure you'll enjoy! And yes, she is obsessed with sex. lol
