Casting Performers for "Rumors" Show

Wilson, NC, United States
ID: 270369Exp: 10/8/2024
Description:

The company is holding auditions for "Rumors" Show and looking for performers, please see the details below. About the project: At a large, tastefully-appointed Sneden’s Landing townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot himself. Though it’s only a flesh wound, Charlie Brock’s self-inflicted injury sets off a series of events causing four couples to experience a severe attack of farce. As their tenth wedding anniversary party commences, Charlie lies bleeding in another room, and his wife Myra is nowhere in sight. The first guests, lawyer Ken Gorman and his wife Chris, scramble to get “the story” straight before the other guests arrive. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity. Additional info: Show Dates: November 22-23, 7:30 and November 24, 3:00 p.m.
