CHANGE OF PRODUCTION.

Old Mill Theatre will audition for the November/December season on

Sunday September 2nd  from 2 pm

 Season November 29-Decenber 15

The chosen play is now Plaza Suite a comedy by Neil Simon

director Susie Conte

(replacing The 39 Steps)

The play is composed of three acts, each involving different characters but all set in Suite 719 of the Plaza Hotel in NYC.

The first act, Visitor From Mamaroneck, introduces the audience to not-so-blissfully wedded couple Sam and Karen Nash, who are revisiting their honeymoon suite in an attempt by Karen to bring the love back into their marriage.
The second act, Visitor from Hollywood, involves a meeting between movie producer Jesse Kiplinger and his old flame, suburban housewife Muriel Tate.
The third act, Visitor from Forest Hills, revolves around married couple Roy and Norma Hubley on their daughter Mimsey's wedding day. In a rush of nervousness, Mimsey has locked herself in the suite's bathroom and refuses to leave.

The play calls for 2 actors to play the main characters in each act, but this can be adapted to have 6 actors for all the parts. I will be auditioning for all 6 main roles and the few smaller but important roles.

Please come prepared with a comedic monologue, and we will also do a reading from the play together. To interested parties, I will try and organise a play reading a week before the auditions. Please email Susie.conte@gmail.com for any further info and to book an audition time.
