"Spellcast," by Barbara Ashford is about Maggie Graham. We find Maggie right at the start of her summer. She has lost her job. And, to make it worse, the bathroom ceiling in her apartment in Brooklyn caved in! Finally, Maggie had had enough of Brooklyn. As a result, she drove away from home and decided to stop in Hillandale, Vermont for the weekend. When the road forked, she turned toward Dale. Somehow, though, the area felt vaguely familiar, especially the big white barn she passed while she was on her way to town. Later on, Maggie auditions for the town play and gets in. The play is at the Crossroads Theatre- that white barn that Maggie thought she recognized. As it turned out, Maggie was basically the only person in the show with previous acting experiences. But nothing, nothing, could prepare Maggie for the magic that was going to happen on the stage, or the theatre's weird staff, or the mysterious, moody director...
