Nothing Important's SEVEN DECEMBERS Gets Encore at The Lounge Theatre

Nothing Important Productions returns to The Lounge Theatre with Seven Decembers, winner of the Hollywood Fringe Encore! Producer's Award. Seven Decembers made its official debut to sold-out audiences in June, and has been invited back to the stage on August 19th and 20th.

Seven Decembers is a dark comedy that follows Johnny May Leahy (played by Bridgit King) through one night, trapped in her mother's tacky condo with her estranged and dysfunctional family. It has been seven years since her brother Michael went missing. The only hope that he may still be alive comes from mysterious phone calls on his birthday each year. And so, every December, the Leahy family gathers and waits; waits to see if this will be the year they hear Michael's voice on the other end of the phone.

Cousins Annamarie Davidson and Bridgit King founded Nothing Important Productions in 2015. After they both lost a parent in the same year, they decided to give their grief a voice and a purpose through their creative works.

Annamarie Davidson got her start writing her school play in the fifth grade, a Colonial Williamsburg murder mystery in which she also starred. After graduating high school at sixteen, she attended Cuesta College in San Luis Obispo, California, performing in Joe Masteroff's Cabaret and starring in Steven Dietz's God's Country. After studying avant-garde theatre and journalism at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, she moved to Los Angeles. Acting led her to stand-up comedy, where she rediscovered her love of writing. She has been published in The Jersey Devil Press, and is a contributer for Bright Lite Magazine and brightlitemag.com.

Bridgit King is an alumna of the Los Angeles City College Theatre Academy. She has appeared as Beverly in The Shadow Box, O'Brien in George Orwell's 1984, Jolene Palmer in Self Defense, and as part of the ensemble cast of The Untitled Warhol Project; winner of Best Devised Work at the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival. Bridgit was nominated for an Irene Ryan Award for her role as Brianna in I Want to be a Junkie When I Grow Up, a play that she co-wrote. She made her directing debut with the one act play, Leon and Joey, which was presented at the Hollywood Fringe Festival in 2014. Bridgit was Assistant Director of a production of Our Lady of 121st Street that went on to win several awards at the KCACTF in 2015.
