The Savannah Sipping Society
By Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, Jamie Wooten
Auditions: Sunday & Monday, September 24 & 25, 2023

Show dates: November 3 – 19, 2023
Directed by Aynn Titchenal

The Savannah Sipping Society is a delightful comedy, in which four unique
middle-aged Southern women, all needing to escape the sameness of their day-to-day routines, are drawn together by fate—and an impromptu happy hour-and
decide it’s high time to reclaim the enthusiasm for life they’ve recently lost. Over
the course of six months, filled with laughter, hilarious misadventures, and the
occasional liquid refreshment, they discover lasting friendships and a renewed
determination to live in the moment—and most importantly, realize it’s never too late to make new old friends.

Auditions will take place from 7-9pm on Sunday, September 24 and Monday,
September 25 at Little Theatre Off Broadway, 3981 Broadway, Grove City, Ohio.
Auditions will be cold readings from the text, both monologues and scenes
involving all four characters. Please plan to stay for the entire audition period, 7-9pm. Bring any conflicts from the audition date through opening night, and if
available, a resumé and headshot.

The cast calls for 4 women to play characters of the following descriptions/ages
(you don’t have to be the age listed, only able to play that age):

Randa – 49 – a hard-driving never-married career woman whose career has imploded; Dot – 69 – a woman whose husband’s death ruined the retirement she’d look forward to; Marlafay – 57 – a woman coping with the fact that her husband took off with her money and a 23-year-old; and Jinx 53 – a woman who signs up to help the other three get their new lives going.

The Who’s Tommy
Auditions: Sunday & Monday, November 5 & 6, 2023

Show dates: January 12 – January 28, 2024
Directed by Bob Kile

Myth and spectacle combine in a fresh reinvention of The Who’s exhilarating 1969 rock concept album, Tommy—including the unforgettable anthems “I’m Free,” “See Me, Feel Me,” “Sensation,” and “Pinball Wizard.” After witnessing the murder of his father, the young Tommy Walker is lost, endlessly and obsessively staring into the mirror. An innate knack for pinball catapults him from reticent adolescent to celebrity savior.

Please come prepared to sing one minute of music representative of the show’s style — no readings from the script. There are only about 10 spoken lines!

Please provide a printed resume with vocal range, list of special skills, and any conflicts.

The parts of Nora, Captain Walker, and Uncle Ernie have been cast.
Cast includes: 1 female lead, 2 female featured singers, 3 lead males, 2 supporting males, 3 featured males — most cast members will be filling numerous roles — large mixed chorus. Two minor children needed (young Tommy roles). While some characters are “age specific” we’ll be casting a broad range of ages.

Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of this world origins and intent towards global domination!
