When an overworked mother and her teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to put things right again. Freaky Friday, a new musical based on the celebrated novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, is a heartfelt, comedic, and unexpectedly emotional update on an American classic. By spending a day in each other’s shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another’s struggles, learn self-acceptance, and realize the immeasurable love and mutual respect that bond a mother and daughter.

Freaky Friday, based on the beloved 1972 novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, features a book by Bridget Carpenter and music and lyrics by Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey – the Pulitzer Prize-winning composers of Next to Normal and If/Then.

Auditions Announced for THE PREMATURE CORPSE at Tri-County Players

TCP_logoTHE PREMATURE CORPSE by Mike Johnson
Directed by Trisha Cooper

Monday, March 7th & Tuesday, March 8th at 7pm

Evendale Cultural Arts Center – 10428 Reading Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45241

Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script

Cast requirements: 3M/3F

  • Evan Jorris — a tax consultant
  • Francine Jorris — his wife
  • Larry Craig — their attorney
  • Bert Marshak — a federal agent
  • Thalia Broderick — a medical specialist
  • Angie Hoffman — a motel maid

This masterfully plotted show has so many twists and turns…On the surface, it’s a “love triangle” stale: State’s witness, Evan Jorris, under a government protection program after testifying against the mob, has a wife, Francine, who along with her lover, lawyer Larry Craig contrives to do away with her husband, confident that everyone will assume that the mob did the deed. This deceptively simple setup, however, is not at all what it seems.

Performance Dates: May 6, 7, 8 and 13, 14, & 15

**Please not the audition location IS NOT the same building in which TCP performs, but it is in the same Village complex. You MUST enter by Reading Road and not Glendale Milford Rd.

Auditions Announced for PETER AND THE STARCATCHER at Fairfield Footlighters

fflPETER AND THE STARCATCHER

Directed by Nicholas Brown
Produced by Kevin Noll & Abigail James
Vocal Directed by Sam Downs
Choreographed by Anna Brown

Auditions will take place in the Community Room from 6-9pm on Tuesday, March 22nd and Thursday, March 24th.

  • Please prepare a song in the style of a sea shanty or similar tune (a musical theatre tune is also acceptable) to sing acapella.
  • Come prepared to also read from the script and possibly sing a song from the show, as there will not be callbacks.
  • Sides and songs will be available via the link here, a couple of weeks before the audition dates.

Please come with a list of your conflicts in April and May. It is recommended to provide a headshot and resume, though it is not required. Audition forms will be provided in advance.

If you cannot attend in-person auditions but would still like to be considered for a role, please email the director, Nicholas Brown, at nicholasanthonybrown1@gmail.com. Include your resume, brief video of you singing a song acapella, and a filled out audition form prior to the audition dates. You may be asked to send in another video of you reading from the script.

Roles Available for 1-2 Females | 10-11 Males | Ensemble of all genders

  • Black Stache: male, 30-50, a notorious pirate, terrorizing the seven seas in search of a worthy adversary. Heartless, hirsute, and suspiciously well read. Partial to the poetical and theatrical, which causes him to behave quite flamboyantly.
  • Molly Aster: female, 13-25, a young girl and Starcatcher apprentice who is taken aboard the Neverland as precious cargo. Curious and intelligent, she is only beginning to understand the confusing romantic longings that come with her age. She will risk anything for the sake of what is right.
  • Boy/Peter: male, 13-25, a lonely and hardened orphan who doesn’t miss much. Nameless, homeless, and friendless at the beginning of the play and a hero by the end. He wants a home and a family more than anything, and dreams of a life of being free.
  • Grempkin: male, 40-60, the schoolmaster of St. Norbert’s Orphanage for Lost Boys. Mean and malodorous, he revels in keeping his boys in the dark and malnourished.
  • Mrs. Bumbrake: male, 40-60, Molly’s nanny, a stereotypical British cad and outfitted with the duty of teaching Molly about womanhood. She still has enough charm in her age to attract a sailor or two.
  • Bill Slank: male, 35-55, the vicious orphaned captain of the Neverland. Does not possess the capacity to lead anyone but himself, which puts himself constantly in disaster. Greedy enough to send boys to their doom for the chance of gaining starstuff.
  • Smee: any gender, 25-55, Black Stache’s first mate. He is single-mindedly dedicated to his captain’s every whim.
  • Prentiss: male, 13-25, an orphan, ambitious, hyper articulate, and logical. He yearns to be leader, even when he knows in his heart that he’ll never be one. A bit of a blowhard with a touch of cowardice.
  • Alf: male, 50-65, a seafarer, an old sea dog proud of his tenure. His kind heart gives him an appeal to the feminine sensibility.
  • Lord Leonard Aster: male, 40-60, Molly’s father, a loyal subject to the Queen. The very model of a Victorian English gentleman, he is a faithful friend and a secret Starcatcher.
  • Captain Robert Falcon Scott: male, 35-45, Lord Aster’s old school friend, the captain of the Wasp, Britain’s fastest frigate. Lives with nautical bravura and heroic patriotism.
  • Ted: male, 13-25, an orphan obsessed with food. A natural performer with easy wit and quite poetic language.
  • Ensemble: all genders, Sailors; Seamen; Seafarers; Orphans; Pirates; Mermaids; Mollusks; Narrators

A young orphan and his mates are shipped off from Victorian England to a distant island ruled by the evil King Zarboff. They know nothing of the mysterious trunk in the captain’s cabin, which contains a precious, otherworldly cargo. At sea, the boys are discovered by a precocious young girl named Molly, a Starcatcher-in-training who realizes that the trunk’s precious cargo is starstuff, a celestial substance so powerful that it must never fall into the wrong hands. When the ship is taken over by pirates – led by the fearsome Black Stache, a villain determined to claim the trunk and its treasure for his own – the journey quickly becomes a thrilling adventure.

Performance Dates: May 27-29, 2022
