"Southern Fried Funeral" Comedy Play Seeking Cast
Upcoming auditions for the hilarious comedy "Southern Fried Funeral". Actors needed. See the breakdown below. About the project: Summary: Dewey Frye is dead and the rest of his family is left to pick up the pieces -- that is if they don't kill each other first. Not only does matriarch Dorothy have to contend with sudden widowhood, but she's also faced with church-committee harpy Ozella Meeks sticking her nose in the family business, Dewey's snake-in-the-grass brother making a grab for her house, and two grown daughters reliving their childhood rivalry. Funerals bring out the worst, the best, and the funniest in people, and the Fryes are no exception. A big-hearted comedy about family... Southern-style. Additional info: Auditions will consist of cold reads from the script. Performance dates: March 21, 22, 23, 28, 29 & 30. If you are interested, please apply.
