That's All, Folks!


We closed our show over a week ago, and it was a massive success. More than 300 people came to see the show, we had three sold-out shows, and all of our reviews were positive! We'll walk away from this experience with many warm memories. Thank you to everyone who helped with the show, and who came out and watched it. We couldn't have done it without you!

Our Acting Tricked the Police!


First off, we had a sold out Thursday performance! Yay!! And the audience response was so positive.

But, apparently, during a particularily distressful scene, someone was walking outside of Little Mountain Gallery. They heard our screams of "Let us out!" and "I gotta get outta here!", not realizing we were doing a scene. They actually called the police, thinking that there were people inside Little Mountain who were trapped. So, at the end of our performance, a policewoman (a very nice one at that) came by the venue to ask if anyone was in danger. Jenn Stewart, our wonderful stage manager, essentially had to explain, "No one was in danager, we were just acting. We were pretending we were in quarantine"

A very eventful, fun night.

Opening Night a Huge Success!





On Sept. 10, we opened our show to a completely packed house! The energy was electrifying, and the audience absolutely loved the show. We even got applause after the fast forward sequence! All of us had so much fun doing the show, and being surrounded by all that love. Unfortunately, our director, Anthony F. Ingram couldn't be there to join us, but his presence was definitely in the room. Thank you to everyone who came out and showed their support!

Afterwards, the cast, crew, and a small group of friends went over to our lovely assistant director's house, Emilie, to relax and enjoy the success of our Opening Night show.

Interviews with the Characters - Cameron McClusky-Nunez


1) What's your name and age? My name is Cameron McCluskey-Nunez. I am 25 years old.

2) Where are you from originally? Where do you live now? I am from La Hoya California and now live in LA.

3) What do you do for a living? I am a Tv and Film actor. You may remember me as the lovable Tommy Higgins from the hit TV show "6 plus 2". I am currently trying to make my big breakthrough into action films as a leading man.

4) Where were you when you got the evacuation notice? I was on set for my next film called "Deathwatch" starring Matt Damon when I got the evacuation notice.

5) Had you heard of the virus prior to the evacuation notice? I had heard about it a couple days before from some people on set. My Agent also told me. Matt Damon had left set 3 days prior to the evacuation notice and it was up in the air if he was going to be coming back to finish filming.

6) In order to get a more detailed picture of who you are, please answer the following questions:
- What is your favourite word? My favourite word would have to be Kung Fu. I like the way it sounds and it is a very tough martial art to master.
- What is your least favourite word? My least favourite word would probably be Squid because that is what my dad used to call me as a nickname and I never liked it and I can't eat squid to this day.
- What turns you on? A sexy hot independent woman who can fend for herself and drive a fast car (standard) turns me on.
- What turns you off? An old ugly woman would turn me off almost fo sho.
-What sound or noise do you love? I love the noise of awesome music, also the sound of an incoming text message sounds super awesome on my phone. Also a fart sounds funny.
- What sound or noise do you hate? I hate the noise of my dads voice, its super annoying and also when you are eating on a plate with a knife and fork and it makes that high pitched noise, that sucks.
-What is your favourite curse word? My favourite curse word is a word that I made up that I use to describe people who say they are awesome at something but then are not. The word is "PUSSYBITCH"
- What profession other than your own would you like to attempt? I would probably like to be a UFC fighter or a martial arts trainer if I couldn't be an actor any more.
- What profession other than your own would you not like to attempt? I would hate to be the guy who cleans out those portable toilets, I don't like smelling like shit.
-If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say at the pearly gates? I would want god to say "That'll do Cam, That'll do". Like from the movie with the talking pig, except I wouldn't be a pig, I would be myself, Cam.
