UPCOMING AUDITIONS FOR 2010-2011!

Theatre Cambrian is now booking auditions for the following productions:

   
 

Eat Your Heart Out

Charlie's an out-of-work actor currently working as a waiter. The scene is a series of hilarious encounters in Manhattan restaurants both elegant and shabby. By changing the tablecloths in the course of the action, the basic setting of three tables and six chairs becomes another place. The action is uninterrupted, and the comedy never stops. The other performers play several parts: the Girl desperately trying to eat snails and oysters to please her fiancé, the middle- aged lovers so intent on each other they cannot order dinner; the rich, embittered astrologer; the timid man who never gets a waiter; the agents, directors, actors, and waiters. It’s an amusing gallery of characters whose stories intertwine and finally involve Charlie. All five actors will have to pull all the stops in this wonderful acting challenge.

Audition Dates: Wednesday, May 26 – 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
Sunday, May 30 – 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Thursday, June 3 – 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Location: 40 Eyre Street
Call: 524-7317

Rehearsal Dates: To be determined by the cast; small size of cast allows for flexibility

Audition Requirement: Cold read from Act One of the play

Characters: Charlie – a waiter in his late twenties or early thirties
Girl – early or mid-twenties
Man – forties or fifties
Woman – forties or fifties
Boy – early or mid-twenties

The Girl, Man, Woman, and Boy all play several parts. The Boy should be similar in “type” to Charlie.

Miss Saigon

A classic love story is brought up-to-date in one of the most stunning theatrical spectacles of all time. In Miss Saigon, Alain Boublil and Claude-Michael Schönberg (the creators of Les Misérables), along with Richard Maltby, Jr., bring Puccini's “Madame Butterfly” to the modern world in a moving testament to the human spirit and a scathing indictment of the tragedies of war. In the turmoil of the Vietnam War, an American soldier and a Vietnamese girl fall in love, only to be separated during the fall of Saigon. Their struggles to find each other over the ensuing years ends in tragedy for her and a fighting chance for the child he never knew he had. An international sensation, Miss Saigon is an epic, daring pop opera that is universal in its emotional power even as it deals with controversial, contemporary issues. Its sung-through pop-inflected score gives a multi-ethnic cast of strong pop singers an opportunity to shine, in show stopping numbers like “I Still Believe,” “Why God Why?” and “The American Dream.” Meanwhile, its fluid cinematic structure gives directors and designers a field day. Raw and uncompromising, Miss Saigon is an intensely personal story of the losses we suffer and the sacrifices we make in a world gone mad.
Miss Saigon runs May 12-28.
