SETTING

The Round Table Bar: A rustic building, which has housed a bar since F.D.R. revoked prohibition. There are pinball machines, a pool table, and an ancient moose head over the door, neon beer advertisements and Men’s’ and Women’s’ bathrooms, respectively labeled “Jimmies” and “Sooks”. On the other side of the room is the front door, which leads to a porch; it is left over from the days during prohibition when the building was probably a country store. At the end of the porch, partially hidden by the autumn leaves, is a sign, which reads, “Hazel and Harry’s Round Table Bar.” Bleeding through the old paint are the words, “Bob’s Bar & Grill”.

AUDITION INFORMATION:

            Auditions are open to all adults 18-80. Please bring a headshot or photo of yourself and a current resume. If you do not have a photo someone from our company will assist you on the day of the event. The format of these auditions will be cold readings from the play script itself. Meaning you need to prepare nothing to participate in these auditions; when you arrive parts will be assigned for a scene and everyone will act in character for the scene, this will continue until the Director feels he has seen enough from everyone in the group and then move on to a new scene and new people. It is suggested you familiarize yourself with the script before auditioning but it is not required.

 

If you are interested working on this show but not on the stage, we will also be receiving resumes from interested Technicians and Artists at all our audition dates. If you have a talent you want to share with us and don’t have a resume don’t worry, just come talk to us the audition and we will happily find a place for your skills to shine on this production.
