Calumet Players eyeing return

Director David Crowley has written an original screenplay, The Walls Have Eyes, that will serve as the next production for the Calumet Players. As director and writer, Crowley has crafted his tale to allow for a unique filming process. Crowley is looking for 15 individuals to take part, six men and nine women. Auditions are next week. As envisioned, it would be less intensive than a traditional play and allows for the cast to remain safe. Kevin Ericson of Keweenaw’s Own Morning Show on 97.7 The Wolf interviewed Crowley Wednesday.

E: You are actually going to be doing a live production. C: Socially distanced… E: Yes C: and video that will then be streamed. E: So you’ll video all the different parts, edit it, and then throw it on the stream…

Crowley says that between rehearsals and how long it will take for each actor to film their part, he expects the overall time commitment to be around 20 hours over the better part of two months. The Players have not made a decision on what streaming service will host their show.

The Walls Have Eyes is a murder mystery.

It’s about a group of 12 descendants, they’re all the grandchildren and their spouses of a 95-year-old very wealthy man, who arrive at his castle-like mansion for the reading of his will.

Look for it to make its debut later this spring. More information is available here.
