Six Characters in Search of a Play

In his latest film adaptation of his solo performance, Del Shores, known for creating “Sordid Lives,” collaborates with director Emerson Collins to definitively showcase that he is not merely a writer but a self-admitted “thief” of stories. In “Six Characters In Search Of A Play,” a nod to Pirandello’s famous work, Shores introduces six unique individuals he has encountered in real life who have yet to appear in his plays, films, or TV series. The audience is treated to the genuine tales of how he gathered these quirky personalities and their narratives, as he humorously reenacts his wild interactions with them. Viewers will meet Yvonne, a Dallas waitress with a disdain for vegetarians; Sarah, an elderly actress who despises Trump and juggles an inhaler and a cigarette; Jimmy Ray, a Georgia redneck with a growing fondness for “Magic Mike”; Loraine, a former drama teacher who has lost her sanity and developed a fixation on adult films; Marsha, a lesbian with COPD who detests monkeys; and Aunt Bobby Sue, a Republican with racist tendencies but a surprisingly kind heart.
