Casting Call for “Five Alarm,” Co-Directed by David and Sharon Light, this production will run the first two weekends of June at The Bank Theatre. Contact David Light at davidlight714@gmail.com by December 21, 2021, for a synopsis, character breakdown, and more information. SYNOPSISA fairground in Killaloe, Ontario is home to the annual Wayne Rose Memorial Chili Cook-Off, where Killaloe residents come each year to compete for both for the honour of winning and the cash prize. The most determined of these is Ava Rose (Wayne’s daughter), who has tried (and failed) to win for sixteen years. This year, with the ” help” of a new assistant (Ellen), Ava returns to battle her former childhood friend and now-rival (Connie). Unfortunately, her father’s famed chilli recipe exists in only incomplete form, part of it (containing the elusive secret ingredient) having disappeared long ago under mysterious circumstances. If she can piece together her late father’s Five Alarm Chili recipe, she might also begin to piece together the mysteries of her past, including the fate of a long-lost high school love and the secret of Connie’s resentment.
