Auditions
And the Winner Is
Comedy
By Mitch Albom
Directed by Austin Vahle
The comic story of a self-obsessed movie star who is finally nominated for an Oscar, then dies
the night before the awards. Outraged at his bad luck and determined to know if he wins (even
though he’s dead), he bargains with a heavenly gatekeeper to return to earth for the big night.
Along the way, he drags his agent, his acting rival, his bombshell girlfriend and his ex-wife into
the journey, in a wildly twisting tale of Hollywood, the afterlife, and how we are judged.
