Come along and meet the director and hear about the play; after a short talk-in, auditions will take place. We are looking for cast of 4 Female, 3 Male
Jefferson Steel; a fading Hollywood star who is arrogant, insecure, brash, gauche, demanding, vulnerable and ultimately aware of his own absurdity. Has a daughter (see below), so needs to look the right age, and able to hold a convincing american accent
Dorothy Nettle; director of the Stratford Players and the moving force behind keeping the theatre alive. Her sweet accommodating manner conceals her inner strength
Jessica Steele; Jefferson's 20ish daughter, who has been neglected by her Hollywood star father, and now wants to make him pay for it. Able to hold convincing american accent and be believable as Jefferson's daughter
Nigel Dewberry; solicitor and leading light of the Stratford Players. Pompous, stuck-up and self-regarding, he believes he is the star of the show, and should play all the leading roles. He also fancies his romantic chances with Dorothy
Mary Plunkett; Owner of the village B&B. Jolly, generous and an unashamedly adoring Jefferson Steel fan - although somewhat confused about which roles he played in his films.
Dennis Dubbins; handyman and village Mr Fixit. Avuncular though slightly dull, Denis is star-struck by Jefferson and fancies heading up his entourage of one
Lauren Bell; Thirty-something marketing executive, former physiotherapist and wife of the theatre's sponsor. Passionate about the arts and smarter than her husband allows her to be.
We will audition for each part and expect the auditioning actors to be familiar with the audition text and to be prepared to interact with other actors in their scenes.
