Ex-player learning new play

MadLab Theatre
Maurice Hall and Jennifer Ntiri in Said/Unsaid

It's OK now to tell Maurice Hall to break a leg.

The former Ohio State running back is into theater.

Hall, 25, made his acting debut last night in MadLab Theatre's Said/Unsaid, a 10-minute play about miscommunication between a husband and wife starring Hall and Jennifer Ntiri.

"The things that I say, she takes a totally different way than I intend and vice versa," he explained. "It's pretty funny."

The play is part of MadLab's "3 in 30" project, featuring three 10-minute original plays in 30 minutes. Said/Unsaid was written by Jim Azelvandre.

When Hall was an OSU student from 2001 to '05, he took a couple of acting classes but never had time to audition for a play.

"I've been taking acting classes at MadLab for about eight or nine months now," he said. "I've been looking on Craigslist for places to audition, and I came to an audition here one day."

Greg McGill, a MadLab ensemble member who helps plan the "3 in 30" project, described Hall as "a regular guy who has some talent and is really working on it."

"When someone has a little celebrity, you don't expect them to have such an open, part-of-the-team attitude."

Hall works in human resources at a Target store and, during the college-football season, as a sports analyst for WCMH-TV (Channel 4).

But acting, he said, "is definitely the career I'm pursuing."

He has also involved some friends: Hall talked two former teammates, defensive back Antonio Smith and running back Roshawn Parker, into taking acting classes at MadLab.
