MPI Announces Auditions for IS LIFE WORTH LIVING?

mpi_logoDirector Jef Brown will hold auditions for the Mariemont Players production of Is Life Worth Living?, a comedy by Lennox Robinson, at the Walton Creek Theater, 4101 Walton Creek Road (just east of Mariemont) at 7:00pm on Monday, July 14th and at 7:00pm on Wednesday, July 16th, 2014.

One summer, the Irish seaside town of Inish invites drama into their lives — with transforming and very funny results. Enter the De La Mare Repertory Company, whose mission is to revolutionize the souls of their audience with serious, intellectual plays. The citizens are moved and delighted by the works of Ibsen, Strindberg and Chekov, but the town begins to change as the once happy-go-lucky citizens see the world through the lens of these melancholic classics. A delightful ensemble comedy and a little-seen Irish gem.

The cast will consist of seven actors and four actresses, 20s and older. Auditions will consist of readings from the script.

The production will be staged November 7th through November 23rd, 2014.

Questions about auditions? Contact the director at jefwi1f@gmail.com. Interested in working behind the scenes? Contact the producer Wayne Kirsch at kirschwe@earthlink.net.

A deviously delicious Broadway and Hollywood sci-fi smash musical, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for over 30 years. The meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant he names “Audrey II” – after his coworker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it, BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of this world origins and intent towards global domination.

ROLES

  • AUDREY – A bleached-blond, Billie-Dawn-like, secret love of Seymour’s life. She has poor self-worth and education, but incredibly good looks and a sweet and vulnerable demeanor. Female, 25-35 years old Range: G#3 – D5
  • CRYSTAL, RONNETTE and CHIFFON – Street urchins, acting as the occasional Greek Chorus. Young, hip, and smart, these girls are the only ones who have a grip on reality. Female, 20-30 years old Range: Ab3 – F5
  • MUSHNIK -The seasoned owner of the failing East Side flower shop and Seymour’s nosy boss. He is profit-driven, greedy, and manipulative. Male, 40-60 years old Range: G2 – F4
  • ORIN SCRIVELLO – An egotistical dentist with a passion for leather and sadistic tendencies. Audrey’s abusive boyfriend, who is targeted by Seymour. Male, 30-40 yrs old Range: G2 – G4
  • SEYMOUR KRELBORN – An insecure, put-upon florist’s clerk and eventual hero. He is a genuine, well-meaning man who is taken for granted because of his clumsy ways and poor social skills. Male, 25-35 yrs old Range: A2 – G4
  • ENSEMBLE – 2 – 4 male and female roles to support cast on large numbers and play various parts throughout the production.
