About The Play: 
Two on the Aisle, Three in a Van welcomes you to another season at the Neighbourhood Actors Summerfun Repertory Theatre, a friendly playhouse where, due to a lack of wing space, the company spends their downtime in the parking lot around an aging hippie/now turned techie’s van. 

A stressed-out artistic director, a wanna-be diva who’s realizing her ingénue expiration date has just about passed, a board member’s nephew vying to direct the musicals with a Tarrentino spin and the “I’m no chorus boy” chorus boy who thinks every show should have a kick line – are just some of the egos and obstacles that fall into the lap of Mike, a nice-guy director who ends up with far more than he bargained for.  In the end, somehow, some way, the show must go on... just not always as planned. Anyone who’s ever seen a show may know these people.  Anyone who’s ever done a show may be these people.

Setting
Two on the Aisle, Three in a Van takes place over a three and a half month span on a one unit set.

CASTING

Mike (mid-30s) - Director/stage manager, soon to be artistic director, good looking, genuinely nice.

Jeannie (mid-30s-50s) - Stage manager, wardrobe person, techie in general, has grown to hate the actors.

Vondo (late 50s-60s) - Techie, sometime actor, one-time pot head, dressed as he was in high school, probably even in the same shirt, owner of the van.

Jeff (50s-early 60s) - The artistic director, forever trying to avoid disaster, high blood pressure and forever trying to avoid a stroke.

Scott (30s-late 40s) - The new guy from the Midwest, costume designer, wardrobe person, nice guy.ERIC (mid-30s) - Director, writer, actor, threatens greatness but delivers nonsense, constantly morbid.

Meredith (mid-30s) - Actress, usually gets the lead, a diva-wanna-be, feigns confidence, basically plain.

Daniel (mid-late 20s) -Actor, idiot, thinks he's the ultimate theater persona, obsessed with dancing.

Robin (15 years) - Actress, plays all the ingénue roles, you just want to hug her because she's cute as cute can be, innocent, naive.

Harriet (early 60s-70s) - Actress, sometimes wardrobe person, quick-witted, real.
