Audition Deficit Disorder NEW WORK!

by Bret Nickels, Dakota Nickels and Steph Blanchette This irreverent comedy is about the torment, anxiety and fear of auditions and casting directors; where seven different characters attempt to negotiate the audition process. The problem is, they all occupy the same body… and they all possess various forms of Audition Deficit Disorder. Have they all gone mad, or are they just madly hilarious? Take a trip into the Audition Deficit Disorder Zone, to a place where it doesn’t matter if the casting director doesn’t like your personality… as there are several more to choose from.
