Hi folks,
Announcing auditions for the spring Actors Ensemble
musical. It will be a lot of fun - a women's message that's very
upbeat.
Auditions Dec. 1 and 6; callbacks Dec. 8. We
especially need women singers.
Feel free to contact me for information and let me
know if you're interested. And spread the word!
Thanks and have a great
Thanksgiving,
Vicki Siegel

"What Do Women Want? - The Marriage of Sir Gawain" is the tale, or a
version of the tale, told by Chaucer's Wife of Bath who is featured
prominently in the "The Canterbury Tales". She also has a very big
role in this musical. As a feisty, outspoken and much married ditzy
but down to earth dame, she has several songs and comments throughout
the main story - which is the tale of Sir Gawain's marriage to Dame
Ragnelle, aka the Loathly Lady.
Men's roles include Knights of the Round Table, Lords and other
ensemble characters; Women's roles are the Wife of Bath, the Loathly
Lady and many ensemble ladies, who of course, tell us what it is that
women most want.
The team we have put together includes many of the same folks who
brought "A Hot Day in Ephesus" to the Live Oak Stage in 2012. This
is a fun and at times slightly irreverent musical and we hope you can
come out to audition!
