Martha is a kindergarten teacher with
a life many would want: a loving husband, a devoted daughter. But when
she leaves it all behind, it's up to her daughter Sarah to pick up the
pieces. A hilarious and heartbreaking story about motherhood, freedom,
and trying to see the people in your family as they really
are.
SARAH: Early 20s. Margaret's daughter.
Has just finished college. Smart and funny, and on the vulnerable cusp
between adolescence and adulthood. Still innocent of the deep sadness
and ambivalence present in much of adult life, despite an occasionally
tough exterior. Her mother's bewildering abandonment has confused and
frustrated her. She still needs mom.
JOHN:
Late 40s-early 50s. Margaret's husband. A teacher. A family man.
Affectionate, loyal, and patient. Has always been the grounded one in
this family. Not a doormat, just very steady. He knows his wife better
than she thinks he does, and is not completely surprised by her
disappearance, but is nonetheless unmoored by it. Bereft and at loose
ends.
ROSE: 70s-80s. Martha's mother.
Opinionated, blunt. Old enough to call it like she sees it and get
away with it. Though she is in physical decline, she is fighting it
every step of the way. She also sees Martha more clearly than anyone
else does, and is marshalling what strength she has left to save
Martha from herself.
BECCA: Late 30s-early
40s. Martha's slightly younger best friend and neighbor. Devoted
mother of two boys. A natural caretaker and a bit of a worrier.
Empathetic, eager to help. Her nervous energy may make her seem a
little lightweight, but she has a mother's strength
underneath.
DANNY: Late 30s-early 40s.
Becca's husband. The "cool dad." Easy-going in contrast - and
probably in reaction - to Becca's more nervous demeanor.
Charming and fun, but restless. Loves his family, but he's aware that
middle age is right around the corner, and his affability masks a
struggle with that fact.
DYLAN: To play 16. A
very tall young man. Becca & Danny's son. Suffers from acute knee
pain due to his height. A sweet kid - and definitely still more
of a kid than a man, despite his height. Uncomfortable, both
physically and emotionally. Very close with his mother. Struggles a
bit in school. He'll grow up fine, it's just that being a teenager is
tough and he's in the thick of it.
LITTLE
GIRL: A kindergartener. Precocious.
Stubborn.
MARTHA: CAST (Edie Falco). A wife,
mother, and kindergarten teacher whose ambivalence about all three of
those roles has caused her to make the decision to walk away from them
and rent an apartment on her own at The
Madrid.
Performers of all ethnic and racial
backgrounds are encouraged to attend.

ART'S SAKE STUDIO ~ Film Acting Classes with Yvonne Suhor

THE ORGANIC FILM ACTING PROCESS

FREEDOM * DEPTH * TRUTH

            The organic process is vital both to artists who are challenged by transferring theatre, commercial or improv knowledge into a successful film-TV acting process; and artists who have no process and desire to develop a 1st class approach to their work.

CORE FILM CLASS--Meisner/Method/Game-based core class is a comprehensive exploration into the vital elements of film acting: spontaneous exchange of energy, trading fear for freedom, using your own unique authenticity and depth to bring a character to life; heightening your personal power in the industry, advanced marketing strategies for getting cast, professional cold reading techniques, monologues, and scene analysis.

CAST BLAST Summer Camps are a great way to build confidence in your kids! I've seen shy children become more bold, and confident children gain even more self-assurance as they have the opportunity to perform and receive encouraging feedback. If you are interested in having your child attend one of the camps, please contact me soon. 10 is the maximum number of campers in each camp, so space is limited! - Shauna



Recommended by agents, casting directors, parents and kids! Give your children the confidence they need to succeed!
