About the project: "THE LEHMAN TRILOGY" SYNOPSIS: THE LEHMAN TRILOGY portrays the captivating saga of a family and a company that shaped the world, featuring three actors who portray multiple generations of the Lehman brothers. From their hopeful arrival in New York in 1844 to the dramatic collapse of Lehman Brothers 163 years later, this epic tale explores the rise and fall of the iconic firm, intertwining personal dreams with a global financial crisis. "BLITHE SPIRIT" SYNOPSIS: This classic comedy from playwright of Private Lives offers up fussy, cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine, re-married but haunted – literally – by the ghost of his late first wife, the clever and insistent Elvira who is called up by a visiting “happy medium,” one Madame Arcati. As personalities clash, Charles’ current wife, Ruth, is accidentally killed and passes over, joining Elvira in the afterlife, and the two “blithe spirits” haunt the hapless Charles into perpetuity. "GUYS & DOLLS" SYNOPSIS: Set in Damon Runyon's mythical New York City, GUYS AND DOLLS is an oddball romantic comedy. Gambler, Nathan Detroit, tries to find the cash to set up the biggest craps game in town while the authorities breathe down his neck; meanwhile, his girlfriend and nightclub performer, Adelaide, laments that they've been engaged for fourteen years...

A novelist. Charles is bright, sophisticated, articulate, and debonair but somewhat at the mercy of his wives, past and present. His interest in spiritualism as a subject for a novel leads Charles to ask Madame Arcati to dinner and a séance. He is skeptical but becomes a believer when the ghost of his first wife appears and stays. RP Accent. "BLITHE SPIRIT"
Charles’ second wife. Like her husband, Ruth is witty and sophisticated, and she is quite the society matron. Ruth is a bit stuffy and a little predictable. She is convinced that Charles has lost his mind when Elvira appears. Ruth acts as a concerned wife, trying to restore Charles to normalcy. RP Accent. "BLITHE SPIRIT"
The ghost of Charles’ first wife. Only Charles can see or hear her. In life, Elvira was spirited, outgoing, wild, and carefree. In death, she is no different; she socializes with Genghis Khan. She does love Charles, if somewhat casually, and is jealous of Ruth. RP Accent. "BLITHE SPIRIT"
