"FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY" by Daniel Prillaman
FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY (aka THE BREAD PLAY): After getting the unlimited bread deal at an Italian restaurant, Arlo and Val are both stuffed and ready for the check. But their server doesn\u2019t bring them their check. He brings them more bread. He keeps ... bringing them more bread. He won\u2019t stop. He won\u2019t ever stop. The bread is unlimited. And there is no escape. A romantic horror comedy about the hard truth that nothing lasts forever, except maybe bread.\nWritten by Daniel Prillaman\nDirected by\xa0Jonathan Cook\nPerformed by Roshelle Simpson as "Val", John D. Nelson as "Arlo", Valentin Angel Fernandez as "Server", and Jacquie Floyd and Jonathan Cook as the "Advertisement Announcers"\nIntro/Outro music:\xa0JK/47\nAbout the writer: Daniel (he/him) is a neurodivergent ginger Virginian currently based out of Northern Ohio (with his creative partner and wife, Allisyn). He has a special fondness for absurdism, folklore, and horror, but ultimately loves plays about honest people (or talking animals) in situations he hasn't seen before. When not gleefully giving his "soul" to artistic endeavors and projects, he legitimately enjoys long walks on the beach, a video game with a glass of wine, and biscuits. His plays include "A Pirate Carol," "The Ashen Crown," and "You See Them in the Corners of Your Eyes," which have been produced in camp workshops and schools across the United States. His cosmic horror, "In the Slush," was a Finalist for the 2023 Princess Grace Award. Daniel is an alumnus of the University of Virginia and a member of the Dramatists Guild.\nGather by the Ghost Light merch available at\xa0Home | Gather by the Ghost Light (bigcartel.com)\nIf you would like to further support this podcast, please visit\xa0Gather by the Ghost Light is increasing public knowledge of emerging writers and actors (buymeacoffee.com)\nIf you are associated with a theatre and would like to perform this play, please send an email to info@gatherbytheghostlight.com to get connected with the playwright.\nIf you enjoy this podcast, please please please leave a rating on your preferred podcast app!\nGather by the Ghost Light\nLearn more about your ad choices.
