First, this man loves to write. He repeats ad nauseum. I needed a bookmark because I kept thinking I read a chapter because of the repetition. Glenn or the editor/proofreader should go back to school and learn grammar. I can't understand how you can get a backstory, history, and some sort of concept of the film in a 1-page cold read. I worked in a casting office about 10 years ago. Maybe things have changed. The only thing I do when I audition for a play is to get the play from the library and read it through several times. If I'm interested, then I audition. If not, no harm done.
