Auditions Announced for WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOLFF? at CenterStage Players

CSPOH_logoCenterStage Players is excited to announce auditions for the Tony Award winning play WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOLFF? by Edward Albee. Directed by Lynne Aronson and produced by Dee Dunn.

Auditions will be held at the North Colllege Hill City Center 1500 W. Galbraith Rd. 45231 on Sunday August 16 and Tuesday August 18 from 7 to 9pm. Callbacks, if necessary, will be held Wednesday August 19 form 7 to 9pm.

Performances February 5, 6, 7, 11, 12, 13, 2016.

The director encourages you to be familiar with the play before the auditions. You will be asked to read from the script and no appointment is necessary. Please bring a resume and current picture, if you have one, and your calendar, as we will ask you about conflicts in the late fall, 2015, and winter, 2016.

WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOLFF? is an emotional rollercoaster between George, a college history professor and his wife Martha, daughter of the college president, and Nick, a new professor in the biology department and his wife, Honey. Illusion and reality are nebulous and never clear. The morals and mores of the 1950’s, wherein families consisted of husband, wife and two perfect children living in the suburbs, is questioned and exposed. Alcohol is used to self-medicate and the mental stability of all of them is in question.

Needed are 2 men and 2 women.

  • MARTHA: 52, but looks somewhat younger. A large boisterous woman, ample, but not fleshy.
  • GEORGE: Her husband, age 46. Thin, hair going gray.
  • HONEY: 26, a petite blond young woman, rather plain looking.
  • NICK: 28, her husband. Blond and well put together, good looking.
