Auditions Announced for MPI’s 12 ANGRY JURORS

mpi_logoDirected by Dan Maloney

Sunday, February 15, from 1-4pm and Monday, February 16, from 7-10pm at Walton Creek Theater

Feb. 16 auditions cancelled due to inclement weather.
New date: Tue, Feb. 17 from 7-10pm

A 19-year old man has just stood trial for the fatal stabbing of his father. “He doesn’t stand a chance,” mutters the guard as the 12 jurors are taken into the bleak jury room. It looks like an open-and- shut case – until one of the jurors begins opening the others’ eyes to the facts. One of the jurors says, “We should not make it a personal thing.” But personal it does become, with each juror revealing his or her own character as the various testimonies are re-examined, the murder is re-enacted, and a new murder threat is born before their eyes!

Auditions will consist of readings from the script.

Men and women, ages 21 and up. All roles are open to either gender – no roles have been pre-cast. Looking for lots of different types.

12 Angry Jurors will be staged May 8-24, 2015.

Contact the director at maloneykd@gmail.com for more information

In Tennessee Williams’ shattering classic, an aging Southern Belle longs for her youth and dreams of a better life for her children. Her restless son Tom – a would-be poet and the story’s narrator – gets swept up in his mother’s funny and heartbreaking schemes to find his painfully shy sister, Laura, a husband. THE GLASS MENAGERIE is considered to be one of the most beautiful dramas in American theatre.

MPI_Is Life Worth LivingMariemont Players presents Is Life Worth Living? a comedy by Lennox Robinson, at the Walton Creek Theater, 4101 Walton Creek Road (just East of Mariemont), November 7th through November 23rd, 2014.

IS LIFE WORTH LIVING? is directed by Jef Brown, produced by Wayne Kirsch, and features Betsy Bossart, Jan Costello, Michael Gettinger,Gary Glass, Michael Ireland, Barbara Karol, Art Kibby, Dan Maloney, Stephanie Mooney, Arny Stoller, Traci Taylor, Collin Wenzell and Jack Williams.
