I'm Greg Taylor, and welcome to the Dakota Ring Theatre Summer Showcase, a summer anthology program featuring works from different writers in different styles, and featuring members of the Dakota Ring Ensemble, whom you've come to know so well.

This week our showcase brings us another tale of mystery, from a world just beyond the borders of our own,

as we present Tim Prassels, The Crasher, starring Peter Nichol as Nicholas Ross,

a young writer in search of a fresh start, who finds more than he bargained

for in the small town of Halfway. Decoder Ring Theater now presents Tim Prassell's

The Crasher. Sorry I'm late. Are you Bonnie Dahl?

And you must be Mr. Ross.

Yeah, nice to meet you in person. Thanks for waiting.

Well, it's good to meet you, too. And an honor. We don't get too many famous writers moving

a halfway. Famous writer. too many famous writers moving a halfway.

Famous writer. I'm still not used to that. Better get used to it. I found out on the internet that your first novel was a bestseller. And I saw there's even a movie version in the

works? Yeah, I bought the rights. But it's tied up in production. Hollywood's a strange place.

So you look me up on the internet.

A good real estate agent knows her clients.

Not too well, I hope.

Come on, let me show you the house.

You said your top priority was to find someplace quiet?

Now this is the place.

The living room is very lovely, as you can see.

The picture window faces east, so it's not too hot, and you get some lovely sunrises.

Uh-huh.

Looks fine.
