Jobsite offers the highly anticipated return of this award-winning production from 2023 scaled up to the much larger 300-seat Jaeb Theater – just in time for Halloween! Summer Bohnenkamp’s turn as the legendary Annie Wilkes won her both a Creative Loafing Best of the Bay Award and a Theatre Tampa Bay Award in a run that sold out for five straight weeks. True life becomes stranger than fiction when acclaimed romance novelist Paul Sheldon is rescued from a wintery car crash by his “number one fan,” seemingly-kind nurse Annie Wilkes, and wakes up captive in her secluded home. While Paul is convalescing, Annie reads his latest book and becomes enraged when she discovers the author has killed off her favorite character. Annie forces Paul to write a new novel, but he realizes Annie has no intention of letting him go anywhere. The irate Annie has Paul writing as if his life depends on it – and it does. “... dynamic performances ... [Bohnenkamp] owns this role ... [Jenkins gives] an intensely physical performance, and you feel his pain” – Tampa Bay Times. “Top-notch” – BroadwayWorld. “a delight” – Creative Loafing.
