Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lucas Freeman has opened up a new theater on a university campus in New York City. He casts and directs other people's plays as well as his own. On the evening of Saturday, February 3, he hangs a sign in front of the new Off-Broadway University Theatre, reading:



The theatre has its own building, which has small chips of white marble on the outside walls. It has no windows, but it has a large box office for tickettaking. White stone columns stand at regular intervals, giving the building a Greaco-Roman look.

Lucas, who usually goes by Luke, stands back and looks at the sign, taking it in with the theatre. He nods approval. It's lovely. Then he goes to the parking lot, gets into his blue sportscar, and drives away.


You are welcome to join this roleplay as an actor, a drama teacher, a scene creator, a script writer, a publicist, an audience member, or anything else related to this theatre and the adventures that will spin off from it. Also open to ideas.

Character name: Harley Freerider Chast (Goes by Lee)
Description: Harley was born into a strange family, therefor giving her a strange attire. She wears bright colors that rarely ever match, to give you an idea, her favorite outift is a bright yellow with with a light blue vest over it, one green and one orange armwarmer, a purple skirt, and rainbow stockings, black shoes with care bear shoe laces. The coat that she wears most of the time is a bulky leather coat that doesn't fit her and it has patches on the back from different bar hopping events, she got it from her dad.
Harley has blonde hair, but is willing to dye it for any part, she has a strange tint of rose colored eyes, but they can be considered brown, she is around 5'4" which makes her feel short.
Personality: Harley is very quirkey, she can be bubbly back stage, and durring practice she may need to be told to calm it down. Although she seems to be uncontrolable, when she is in character this is no dropping that character, even when everyone else is too busy laughing at some one who dropped a line, she continues on. She is very serious about acting, and she's willing to try anything for a part, she loves taking the character and making it her own. I guess you could say acting is her lover.
Background (if you wish to reveal it): As mentioned Harley was born into a strange family, her parents were hard core bikers, always telling Harley to follow her dreams. When she was young she was allowed to chose her outfits, and whenever she got upset for being teased, her parents would tell her that she was the one who chose who she wanted to be, and everyone else had to be told. So Harley found out that she had a love for acting, and she took every opertunity to act. She then got into the College in New York, and now she's ready for her first college play, her father gave her his jacket for encouragement.
Position desired in relation to theatre: Actress
Times most often available to RP: It varies, as you can see. On the weekends is when I'm on the most if I'm not doing something.
Anything else you would like us to know: Harley hates the name Harley Freerider Chast... And she has a pet ferret, but she wouldn't dare bring it into the theater.

Waits quietly in the main theatre at 7 p.m., copies of the script in hand, reading a book: The Screwtape Letters, by C.S. Lewis. It is is own copy and it's getting well-worn. Although he has read it a number of times before, he mouths some of the words to himself under his breath, and ocassionally chuckles.

The inside of the theatre is elaborate, with deep-blue velvet drapes and walls decorated with scultped angels, demons, and fanciful creatures. It has two balconies.

"Hello, young lady!" said a male voice with a New York accent. "If you've come to audition, you're the first." Luke put his book down and walked toward her.

Luke looks at her, his china blue eyes sparkling with amusement. "Allow me," he says, and picks up her jacket. Then he shakes her hand, with her jacket draped on his left arm. "Interesting getup there. I really was expecting more of a turnout. We can't have much of a play with only the two of us, now, can we?"

((I wonder what happened to Olive.))

"I might be able to round up a few more people. You really can't have a lot of dialogue with only one person onstage. I prefer to stay on the sidelines myself. But maybe more people will come in time. My name is Lucas Freeman, but I go by Luke. And yours?"

Luke tilted his head to one side slightly as she gave her name, and the nickname, and he smiled privately. "You can put your jacket on any of the seats," he said, and turned his attention to the newcomer, striding to her side. "I'm Lucas Freeman. Call me Luke. I'll be directing this play, and if all goes well, many more after it. I've just met Lee here, and I'd like to know your name as well before we get started." ((And yes, we are in the aisle. Sorry, I'm not always thoroughly descriptive. You can coach me on that!))
