Mariemont Players Announces Auditions for WHO AM I THIS TIME? (& OTHER CONUNDRUMS OF LOVE)
Audition Dates:
Sunday, Jan. 31 from 1-4pm & Tue, Feb. 2 at 7pm
Location: 4101 Walton Creek Rd., Cincinnati, OH 45227
Performance Dates: May 6 – 22, 2016
Synopsis
The subject of this play—as we are told at the outset—is love, pure and complicated. Set on the stage of The North Crawford Mask & Wig Club (“the finest community theatre in central Connecticut!”), three early comic masterpieces by Kurt Vonnegut (Long Walk to Forever, Who am I This Time? and Go Back to Your Precious Wife and Son) are sewn together into a seamless evening of hilarity and humanity. With a single set, wonderful roles for seven versatile actors, and Vonnegut’s singular wit and insight into human foibles, this is a smart, delightful comedy for the whole family.
Character Descriptions
WHO AM I THIS TIME? is a play for 7 actors with doubling (or possibly more without). One actor will need to play the guitar, and there is a group number at the end of the show.
Actor 1
Actor 2
Actor 3
Actor 4
Actor 5

BIG FISH explores the relationship between a traveling salesman and his son, who’s looking for truth in his father’s tall tales.
BIG FISH is a new Broadway musical featuring music and lyrics by Tony nominee Andrew Lippa (The Addams Family, The Wild Party) and a new book by esteemed screenwriter John August (Big Fish, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory).
Based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the acclaimed film directed by Tim Burton, BIG FISH centers on Edward Bloom, a traveling salesman who lives life to its fullest… and then some! Edward’s incredible, larger-than-life stories thrill everyone around him – most of all, his devoted wife Sandra. But their son Will, about to have a child of his own, is determined to find the truth behind his father’s epic tales.
Overflowing with heart, humor and spectacular stagecraft, BIG FISH is an extraordinary new Broadway musical that reminds us why we love going to the theatre – for an experience that’s richer, funnier and BIGGER than life itself.
From Playbill.com:
“A rollicking fantasy set in the American South, Big Fish centers on the charismatic Edward Bloom, whose impossible stories of his epic adventures frustrate his son Will. As Edward’s final chapter approaches, Will embarks on his own journey to find out who his father really is, revealing the man behind the myth, the truth from the tall tales.”
“A HEARTFELT, POWERFUL AND MOVINGLY SCORED NEW AMERICAN MUSICAL full of QUALITY WRITING by JOHN AUGUST.” – Chicago Tribune
