ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Seeking performers for production of "To Die For". Please, see the details below. About the play: Step into the gothic mansion of Carla Woods, a best-selling historical romance writer whose life is anything but dull. Carla has a penchant for playing dangerous mind games—especially with her secretaries. But when a mysterious, devastatingly handsome stranger appears on a dark and stormy night, the game takes an unexpected turn. Is this charming newcomer merely payback from a disgruntled past employee, or could it be… love’s destiny?

Best selling author of GothicRomance novels. Extremely well preserved forty something,striking in appearance,elegant. Flawlessly groomed, always in perfect control of herself and her surroundings. Has a strong voice , which she uses to great effect.
Carla’s new secretary and personal assistant. Appears to be a nervous, timid sort of woman. But there is a hidden side to her, so actor will need to shift apparent character. She is out for revenge. (Also plays Janet Bailey who appears to be murdered at top of show.)
Every gorgeous 1940s-1960s Hollywood movie star rolled into one – or at least the idea of him! Charismatic and dangerous. A better game player even than Carla. He certainly finds her Achilles’ heel.
