Auditions Announced for GREETINGS! at Sunset Players

SSP_logoSunset Players will hold open auditions for GREETINGS! on Wednesday, May 29 and Thursday, May 30 from 7-9 pm at The Art Center at Dunham at 1945 Dunham Way, Cincinnati, OH 45238.

Written by Tom Dudzick and produced by special arrangements with Samuel French, Andy has a sweet Catholic mother, a sour Catholic father and an intellectually disabled younger brother named Mickey. When he brings his Jewish atheist fiancé to meet the folks on Christmas Eve, his worst fears about family blow-ups are realized. But when Mickey, whose entire vocabulary has been limited to “oh boy” and “wow” suddenly spouts the word “Greetings!”, the entire family’s belief system is turned upside down. For it seems an ancient, wise and witty spirit who is set upon healing the family’s wounds has borrowed Mickey’s body.

Directed by Dennis Murphy, show dates for GREETINGS! are September 20, 21, 27, 28, 29, October 3, 4 and 5, 2019.The cast consists of:

  • Two men playing 30s
  • One woman playing 30s
  • One man playing 60s
  • One woman playing 50s to 60s

Auditions will involve cold readings from the script. If you cannot make the audition dates and are interested in a role, contact Dennis Murphy at durfsworld@yahoo.com to schedule an alternate audition.

Its mission is to bring a smile, and its plays include comedies, farces, dramatic comedies and musical comedies—as long as there is some “comedy” in the performance somewhere.
