Casting Performers for "She Was Only Marginally Modest" Play
Looking to cast male and female talent for "She Was Only Marginally Modest". Please see the details below. About the project: Filled with puns, punches, and munchable moose muffins, this classic melodrama is wonderfully entertaining. Ma Belle fights to save the Dead Moose Lodge from repossession and somehow manages to hold off the selfish advances of the lecherous Judge Jury McBribe. This delightful melodrama has a myriad of amusing characters (a must), plot twists (a necessity), and exaggerated scenes (defines melodrama).
