TV personality Marc Summers
will star in a biographical play written by SCHOOL OF ROCK star Alex Brightman
as part of the Bloomington Playwrights Project in Indiana. Debuting this April,
EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE: THE LIFE AND SLIMES OF MARC SUMMERS, will be part of
the company's celebrity guest star series.
You may know him from his
time hosting Nickelodeon's DOUBLE DARE and Food Network's UNWRAPPED, or as the
Producer of hits like DINNER:IMPOSSIBLE and RESTAURANT:IMPOSSIBLE, but now you
get the chance to meet the real Marc Summers - a man who's led a fascinating life
of fame and frustration. EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE is a guided tour through
Marc's life, from an early obsession with magic to his notable television
career and his struggles with OCD. Marc stars in this tell-all about his life,
his disorder, and taking the physical challenge.
Alex Brightman is currently
starring in Andrew Lloyd Webber's production of SCHOOL OF ROCK. Brightman made
his Broadway debut as an understudy in GLORY DAYS and soon went on to replace
in the role of Boq in the Broadway company of WICKED, Michael Wormwood in the
Broadway company of MATILDA, and then joined the original Broadway company of
BIG FISH.
The Bloomington Playwrights
Project (BPP) is the only professional theatre in the entire state of Indiana
dedicated solely to new plays. In operation for 35 years, we serve both the
Bloomington and national theatre community by working with talented
playwrights, actors, and artists to develop high-level productions for our
local patrons as well as the many audiences attending subsequent productions of
scripts that originated here at the BPP. We are an advocate for playwrights and
new plays and believe firmly that they are not only important but absolutely
vital to the future of our art form.
