BREAKDOWN
2019 Season
SHEAR MADNESS
By: Paul Pörtner
Director: Rowan Joseph
Rehearsals start May 14 - May 30, 2019
Runs May 31 - June 16, 2019
Seeking:
BARBARA DEMARCO (Age range: 23-39) A wise-cracking, gum-snapping, nail polishing hairdresser. Very dishy and put together, though on the cheap side
MIKEY THOMAS (Age range: 23-30) A preppy-looking, eager-beaver who’s a capable and earnest undercover cop. Gets his hair washed and blown dry at every performance. It may need to be cut by a professional.
TONY WHITCOMB (cast)
EDDIE LAWRENCE (Age range: 30-55) A well-dressed, nice-looking confident man who covers a dangerous interior with a smooth, suave, and occasionally charming exterior.
NICK ROSSETTI (Age range: 30-40) A hardworking “gumshoe” detective. A bright, quick thinking, personable character actor who can also be an excellent straight man. It requires an actor who is not intimidated by a boisterous audience. It requires a good looking, masculine actor with a solid voice and solid acting skills who can learn the dynamics that will keep the investigation on track.
MRS. SHUBERT (cast)

SOUVENIR
By: Stephen Temperley
Director: TBD
Rehearsals: June 25 – July 11, 2019
Performances: July 12 – July 28, 2019
Seeking:
FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS – A wealthy society woman who, though she believes herself to be a great soprano, has no voice and is incapable of singing two notes in tune. Her belief in her talent, however, and her dedication to music and the art of singing is absolute. She behaves at all times as if she is a major vocal artist. There must be no hint of mockery.
COSME McMOON – (Age range: 50-60) The former accompanist to Florence Foster Jenkins. He has been the resident pianist at an elegant supper club in Greenwich Village for some years. His audience comes to be entertained as much by his abrasive asides as his music.
