Playhouse South Hosts Open Auditions For MOON OVER BUFFALO 8/30-31

Playhouse South, A Community Theater announces open auditions for hilarious comedy, Moon Over Buffalo. Auditions will be held at the Clark Haines Theater, 3700 Far Hills Avenue at 7:00 pm on August 30 & 31, 2010 with performances on October 15-17, and October 22-23, 2010.

Moon Over Buffalo", a brilliant farce set in a theater in Buffalo in 1953, was written by Ken Ludwig, who wrote "Lend Me a Tenor, and the book of the ‘new' Gershwin musical, "Crazy For You". It's the show that brought Carol Burnett back to Broadway, and with its mistaken identities and split second timing, it will be sure to bring a lot of laughs to Playhouse South in October.

Director Jim Lockwood will be looking for actors for the following roles:

George and Charlotte Hay, a pair of has-been actors in their 50s travelling the country with their own troop of thespians, presenting "Cyrano" and "Private Lives" in repertory.
Their daughter, Roz in her late 20s or 30s, who has fled the troop and gotten a real job and a real life in Buffalo.
Howard, in his 30s, Roz's new boyfriend, a weatherman at a Buffalo TV station
Eileen, the troop's new ingénue, in her early 20s, and pregnant by George
Paul, in his 30s, the company manager, and Roz's ex-boyfriend
Richard, 50s, the Hays' lawyer, and Charlotte's intended lover
Ethel, Charlotte's mother, in her 70s and quite deaf.
