TV personality Marc Summers will star in a biographical play written by SCHOOL OF ROCK star Alex Brightman as part of the Bloomington Playwrights Project in Indiana. Debuting this April, EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE: THE LIFE AND SLIMES OF MARC SUMMERS, will be part of the company's celebrity guest star series.

You may know him from his time hosting Nickelodeon's DOUBLE DARE and Food Network's UNWRAPPED, or as the Producer of hits like DINNER:IMPOSSIBLE and RESTAURANT:IMPOSSIBLE, but now you get the chance to meet the real Marc Summers - a man who's led a fascinating life of fame and frustration. EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE is a guided tour through Marc's life, from an early obsession with magic to his notable television career and his struggles with OCD. Marc stars in this tell-all about his life, his disorder, and taking the physical challenge.

Alex Brightman is currently starring in Andrew Lloyd Webber's production of SCHOOL OF ROCK. Brightman made his Broadway debut as an understudy in GLORY DAYS and soon went on to replace in the role of Boq in the Broadway company of WICKED, Michael Wormwood in the Broadway company of MATILDA, and then joined the original Broadway company of BIG FISH.

The Bloomington Playwrights Project (BPP) is the only professional theatre in the entire state of Indiana dedicated solely to new plays. In operation for 35 years, we serve both the Bloomington and national theatre community by working with talented playwrights, actors, and artists to develop high-level productions for our local patrons as well as the many audiences attending subsequent productions of scripts that originated here at the BPP. We are an advocate for playwrights and new plays and believe firmly that they are not only important but absolutely vital to the future of our art form.
