Auditions in VA and D.C. for “Drive Thru Drama” Production

Drive Thru Drama -“Objects in Mirror May Be SPOOKIER Than They Appear”

Location: Washington D.C., Northern VA

Type: Theater

The Alden Presents “Drive-Thru Drama,” a new model of theatre (as far as we know!) in a COVID-19 world. Drive-Thru Drama is a social-distance theatre format that brings people together for live theatre from the comfort of their own car. Actors will perform one, cohesive story through short scenes across the MCC parking lot. Audience members will simply roll down their windows and drive the route from actor to actor.

“Objects in Mirror May Be SPOOKIER Than They Appear”

Every 100 years, the planets align in such a way that allows Spooky Scientists access to an alternate dimension. A century ago, physicist Boris Gool entered and has not been heard from again. Brave the portal this October and help a modern-day Spooky Scientist as you encounter werewolves, witches, zombies and more in the search for what really happened to Boris. A once-in-a-lifetime drive-thru adventure created by Recent Cutbacks (“Hold On To Your Butts,” “KEVIN!!!!!”).

The performance dates are Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, Oct. 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 25, 30, 31; Nov. 1, 4-6 p.m.
