FREE public reading of a large-cast comedy of errors that integrates
the dreamlike fantasy elements of Alice in Wonderland and The Wizard
of Oz into a classical plot of amnesia and mixed-identities. Panic-
ridden Emily is on a quest for the perfect fairy-tale love. When
thrust into a daydream world within a corporate bookstore on
Halloween, she discovers a magical book with the power to alter memory
and love in those who touch it, but will she be able to unite her
hopes and dreams with reality?
Featuring: Joey Arbeely, Jenn Bean, Liz Bean, Rich Burns, Brian Moyer,
Mike Mosey, Al Provost, Rishi Basu and Rachel Baum
