Tree County Players
Aug. 24-26
[Greensburg, Ind.]

Directed by Sean Durbin

Cast: Tom Flemming as Beverly Weston, Lori Durbin as Violet Weston, Allie Myers as Barbara Fordham, Erich Davies as Bill Fordham, Taylor Dennis as Jean Fordham, Julie Webster as Ivy Weston, Toni Kellems as Karen Weston, Shawna Schroeder as Mattie Fae Aiken, Bob Eister as Charlie Aiken, Rocky Miano as Little Charles Aiken, Liza as Johnna Monevata, Conlin Durbin as Steve Heidebrecht & Devin Morgan as Sheriff Deon Gilbeau

Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best New Play, August: Osage County centers around the Weston family, brought together after their patriarch, world-class poet and alcoholic Beverly Weston, disappears. The matriarch, Violet, depressed and addicted to pain pills and “truth-telling,” is joined by her three daughters and their problematic lovers, who harbor their own deep secrets, her sister Mattie Fae and her family, well-trained in the Weston family art of cruelty, and finally, the observer of the chaos, the young Cheyenne housekeeper Johnna, who was hired by Beverly just before his disappearance. Holed up in the large family estate in Osage County, Oklahoma, tensions heat up and boil over in the ruthless August heat. Bursting with humor, vivacity, and intelligence, August: Osage County is both dense and funny, vicious and compassionate, enormous and unstoppable. Contains strong language and intense subject matter, including drug use, suicide, addiction, sexual references, and intergenerational trauma. Intended for mature audiences only. Recommended for ages 18+.

Online Auditions Announced for RIDE THE CYCLONE at The Refuge

MISC_Auditions2We here at The Refuge strive for representation of all kinds. We encourage that performers of any gender, any race, any body type, and any ability audition for which ever part they wish! RIDE THE CYCLONE is a musical about six teenagers who die in a roller coaster accident. The musical takes place in the afterlife where each student competes to be the one who gets to live again.

In our production of RIDE THE CYCLONE we want to highlight the differences between who each character was before they died and who they wished themselves to be in their songs. Thank you for your time and your talent. We can’t wait to see what you bring to the table.

Visit the official page for the dance call and the audition form with character breakdowns.

Performances run Oct. 27-Nov. 5.
