Dawnsbury Days - Good Little Children Never Grow Up
Nancy O'Fallon for Grandmother Demay
You play Grandmother Demay, an evil, insane and murderous orphanage administrator, once pretending to be a kindly old woman. In truth, however, the Grandmother had gone insane and became single-mindedly focused on the belief that adults are the source of all evil in the world and that she must not allow any children to become adults. Thus, once orphans reached a certain age, she would lead them to the cellar and kill them. Then, twenty years ago, the orphans figured it out, killed the Grandmother and fled.
However, her spirit does not rest easy and continues haunting the orphanage. The heroes' job is to destroy this remnant of the Grandmother.
Most of your lines are in flashbacks to twenty years ago when the Grandmother was still a human woman and was "taking care" of the orphanage, but some lines are from her current existence as an undead abomination.
For the audition,
- In line 1, the Grandmother's spirit pretends to be a kindly old woman and is luring Otis, Able and Saya into the cellar so that she can dominate their minds and turn them also into undead.
- Lines 2 and 3 are in a flashback replaying the scene of the Grandmother's death from twenty years ago. In line 2, the orphan Liandra confronts the Grandmother having figured what she had been doing, and the Grandmother calmly, kindly, but with an undertone of insanity, explains to Liandra why it's a good thing that she kills all the orphans.
- In line 3, in the same flashback, after the orphans lock down the still-human Grandmother in the cellar, she panics and becomes enraged and desperate, realizing that she may die trapped in here (she will).
- female adult
- female senior
You must be looking for my dear Sable, children. She's playing down in the cellar.
