THE VICAR OF DIBLEY - Sandgate Theatre Non Equity Auditions

SANDGATE THEATRE

On behalf of Dibley Parish Council

WANTED DAVID & JIM

Due to unexpected transfer of prior David Horton and unavailability of prior Jim Trott

REWARD OFFERED

You get to play a lead role in a very funny play, with a great cast, to be staged at Sandgate Town Hall in mid November 2015.

Councillor David Francis Matthew Horton
MBE,
MA (
Cantab),
FRCS, chairman of the Parish Council, gentleman farmer, pillar of the community, District Councillor for Dibley and Whitworth and main opponent of the female vicar. A notorious town bully, he disliked by many in the village, is rigid, old-fashioned, efficient, callous and punctual, yet as the show progresses, becomes lovable and endearing. Apart from the vicar, he is the only sane person in the village. David was an unloving father to Hugo, and even threatened to disinherit him if he married Alice, whom David detests. However he changed his mind.. Gary Waldhorne who played the character in the 1994 series was in his early fifties at the time (were flexible)

Jim Trott is a parish council member, who has an
idiosyncratic way of prefacing no-no-no-no-no... to almost everything he says, in particular yes! A newspaper in Celebrity Vicar gives him the headline No, No, No, No Brain. He is also openly promiscuous with a penchant for young blondes and Eastern beauties. Trevor Peacock who played the character in the 1994 series was in his mid sixties (were flexible)
