Auditions Announced for BUS STOP at Brookville Community Theatre

BVCT_logoJuly 9 & 10 at 6pm

Brookville Community Theatre
770 Arlington Rd
Brookville, OH 45309

Directed by Sherron Henry

Performance dates: Sept. 5-15

In the middle of a howling snowstorm, a bus out of Kansas City pulls up at a cheerful roadside diner. All roads are blocked, and four or five weary travelers are going to have to hole up until morning. Cherie, a nightclub chanteuse in a sparkling gown and a seedy fur-trimmed jacket, is the passenger with most to worry about. SheÕs been pursued, made love to and finally kidnapped by a twenty-one-year-old cowboy with a ranch of his own and the romantic methods of an unusually headstrong bull. The belligerent cowhand is right behind her, ready to sling her over his shoulder and carry her, alive and kicking, all the way to Montana. Even as sheÕs ducking out from under his clumsy but confident embraces, and screeching at him fiercely to shut him up, she pauses to furrow her forehead and muse, ÒSomehow deep inside of me I got a funny feeling IÕm gonna end up in Montana ÉÓ As a counterpoint to the main romance, the proprietor of the cafe and the bus driver at last find time to develop a friendship of their own; a middle-age scholar comes to terms with himself; and a young girl who works in the cafe also gets her first taste of romance.

Auditions Announced for OVERTHRONE at Cincinnati Music Theatre

CMT_Studio Series logo2OVERTHRONE: An Original Rock Revue

Directed & conceived by MCLEAN STRICKLAND-PARR
Produced by BRETT PARR

This original rock revue will take audiences through a story in a medieval setting that they think they may already know. A Princess has come of age and the kingdom has gathered to celebrate the bright occasion. Like everything in life, unexpected twists can come at any time, and we quickly find ourselves in the heat of a battle for power over the kingdom and more importantly the happenings within the Royal family’s own dwelling. Epic rock songs propel this story through highs and lows, bringing emotion and new meaning to classic music and lyrics from the past and present in this nonstop, high-energy production. Bring on the Reign!
This production staff is committed to bringing together a diverse group of people who are dedicated to bringing this story to life. We encourage performers of all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexualities, abilities, and body types, to submit an audition. We hope to unite a group of people looking to enhance the arts in our community. No roles have been precast.
