Talking With Cast: L to R: Sherry Sunday Booth, Allison Crane, Deanna Payne, Kelly Northcutt Hayes, Cheryl Smith and Shara Connell.

Talking With by Jane Martin is a delightful set of emotional monologues. This play shows some in-depth emotion on various topics.

Simply speaking, this play seems to show many lessons that were learned by each of the women portrayed in the scenes.

The dramatic question is somewhat different from other plays.

That means there seems to be a lesson to be taught rather than a question to be answered.

Each monologue has only one character and its own topic that each character must teach once it is learned.

All of the women in this play is very well characterized by both their dress and their speech and delivery manner.

Because of the way in which each woman delivers her lines you can determine how well she taught herself and the audience the lesson.

Each of them relates a very painful lesson that she had learned earlier in her life.

It seems that each of them is relating the tale of life well learned by convincing themselves as well as the audience that life is worth living.

This stellar cast includes Kelly Northcutt Hayes, Sherry Sunday Booth, Cheryl Smith, Deanna Payne, Allison Crane, Shara Connell and some surprise performances.

Tickets are $10. general admission and $5. for students and seniors. Info at (615) 713-1757 or www.outfrontonmain.com

Out Front will also hold auditions for Love and Human Remains from 6-8 p.m. Sunday and Monday, Jan. 23-24.

Unidentified Human Remains and the True Nature of Love or Love And Human Remains is a creep-out thriller — a serial killer is murdering women — and the script’s sense of threat emerges in a world defined by murkiness about sexual identity.

Told through the eyes of a psychic prostitute, the play uses and subverts elements of various genres, including thriller, situation comedy and B horror films.

Unidentified Human Remains and the True Nature of Love is a serious play with a cynically humorous tone.

First presented by Alberta Theatre Projects at the playRites ’89 Festival in Calgary, Alberta, Love And Human Remains was immediately controversial for its violence, nudity, frank dialogue, and sexual explicitness.

But it was quickly acclaimed by critics and audiences and was named one of the 10 best plays of the year by TIME.

Over the next 15 years, productions in many languages have been mounted of the play from New York to Japan.

In November 2004, a 15th anniversary revival of the piece took place in Calgary.

Roles for four males and three females age late 20s to early 30s of any race. Love and Human Remains will run March 10-27.
