Mariemont Players Inc.
Nov. 2-18
[Walton Creek]

Directed by Laura Berkemeier

Cast: Pat Kramer as Jake, Jackie Miesle as Molly, Elizabeth L. Taylor as Lois, Natasha Boeckmann as Loretta & Mark Metzner as Dyson

Jake owns the bowling alley in a small Midwestern town. He is sitting on a hilltop where two of his three wives are buried. Lois was zapped by lightning while carrying a bowling trophy in a thunderstorm and Loretta was killed by a ball return machine. In his younger days, he was a promising concert musician but a foul tip baseball broke his fingers which subsequently healed into a perfect bowler’s grip. Jake replays the key frames of his life and is visited by his daughter Molly who has become adept at talking women into marrying her father for love and free lane time. But who is that nattily dressed man with dark glasses and a revolver lurking nearby?

A larcenous employee who has embezzled half a million dollars even offers to return it for a managerial position and the daughter’s hand.

Actor Needed for Anthony in OUTSIDE MULLINGAR at Mariemont Players

MPI_logoThanks to everyone who auditioned for OUTSIDE MULLINGAR at Mariemont. While we had a number of people audition for the parts of Aoife, Tony, and Rosemary, unfortunately, no men auditioned for the role of Anthony.

The part is for a playing age of 41.

There will be table work and blocking the week of December 9th, and rehearsals beginning January 2, 2019 to support the opening weekend of March 8, 2019, closing March 24, 2019. Most rehearsals will occur on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The TTF rehearsals will begin at 7pm, and the Sunday rehearsals will be flexible. The play consists of 7 scenes, so some roles will rehearse only a couple time per week, until we start to put the play together in mid February.

If interested, contact the director, Mike Morehead, at morehead71@gmail.com. Please be prepared to list conflicts, and provide a resume, if available.
