Buck Creek Playhouse will hold open auditions for the musical within a comedy The Drowsy Chaperone. Director D. Scott Robinson and Vocal Director Matthew Konrad Tippel are looking for eight men, five woman, and a small ensemble of men and women for this large cast show. Auditioners should come prepared to sing sixteen to twenty measures of an audition song with sheet music in the correct key. An accompanist will be provided. No accompaniment tracks or unaccompanied singing, please. Please come prepared to dance, and bring tap shoes if you have them. You may be asked to read from the script or to sing from the score. All roles are available.

*If cast as Robert Martin, George, or Underling, you may be asked to purchase your own tap shoes for the production.

To chase his blues away, a modern day musical theatre addict known simply as "Man in Chair" drops the needle on his favorite LP -- the 1928 musical comedy The Drowsy Chaperone. From the crackle of his hi-fi, the uproariously funny musical magically bursts to life on stage, telling the tale of a pampered Broadway starlet who wants to give up show business to get married, her producer who sets out to sabotage the nuptials, her chaperone, the debonair groom, the dizzy chorine, the Latin lover, and a pair of gangsters who double as pastry chefs. Man in Chair's infectious love of The Drowsy Chaperone speaks to anyone who has ever been transported by the theater.

The Drowsy Chaperone is scheduled for a nine-performance run June 1-17, 2012. To peruse a reading copy of the script, please contact us at
buckcreekplayers@yahoo.com. Please bring a list of all conflicts from the end of March through June 2012.
