MLT Announces Auditions for PAINTING CHURCHES

MLT_logoAUDITIONS for PAINTING CHURCHES by Tine Howe
Directed by: Charley Shafor

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2014 at 7pm

Performances: May 30 & 31 & June 6 & 7

CHARACTERS

  • Gardner Church: an aging Pulitzer Prize-winning poet slowly losing his mental abilities, and in the sometimes sharply toned conversations between mother and daughter. (Age 60’s to 70’s)
  • Fanny: is a slightly eccentric, tart-tongued Boston Brahmin who loves her doddering husband but fears and resents the loss of their cultured life. (Age 60’s to 70’s)
  • Margaret (Mags): fled to New York and a career as a painter. An infrequent visitor home, she wants to paint a definitive portrait of her parents while she has the chance; the work also allows her an opportunity to get a good look at them, to use the artist’s objectivity with her subjects to see them as people and not just her parents. (Age 30’s) 

SYNOPSIS
Gardner and Fanny Church are preparing to move out of their Beacon Hill house to their summer cottage on Cape Cod. Gardner, once a famous poet, now is retired. He slips in and out of senility as his wife Fanny valiantly tries to keep them both afloat. They have asked their daughter, Mags, to come home and help them move. Mags agrees, for she hopes as well to finally paint their portrait. She is now on the verge of artistic celebrity herself and hopes, by painting her parents, to come to terms with them and they with her. Mags triumphs in the end as Fanny and Gardner actually step through the frame and become a work of art ineffable and timeless.

Inspired by the words of Will and Betty Rogers

Will Rogers was a unique American who, though he died almost sixty years ago, remains a beloved figure remembered for his humor, his wisdom, and his just plain common sense. At the heart of his populist philosophy was his most famous statement: “I never met a man I didn’t like.” Rogers became the biggest, most popular, and highest paid star of every existing medium of his time–stage, screen, radio, newspapers, and public appearances. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that he was the greatest star this country has ever produced. Matthew Wilson, Director; Michael Kennedy, Music Director; Kate Glasheen, Choreographer; Jenny Lutes, Production Stage Manager 

Rehearsals begin: Sunday, July 6, 2014 Performance dates: August 21 – 31, 2014
