[NEohioPAL]Kent Stage Players Still Looking For Older Actors And Actresses

[JHerman312 at aol.com]

The Kent Stage Players are still looking for actors and actresses over the 
age of 50 for their upcoming production of 'Tis The Season, written and directed 
by Jack L. Herman.

We are looking for the following character types.

J. D. HUGHES:  A Slightly bitter old man, around 60, who spends most of his 
time on business and little else. 
 
NICK:  A whimsical old store owner, who delights in his family, in the 
season, and in helping others.
 
LAURA:  (Adult.)  A woman in her late 50’s who doesn't complain but is 
nevertheless a bit sad.
 
ANGELINA:  Nick's wife of many years, slightly overbearing but with a kindly 
heart and giving nature.
 
These are all wonderful roles in a very charming story of love, heart and the 
spirit and magic of Christmas time.

Synopsis
J. D. Hughes has been looking high and low for a special Christmas gift for 
his grandson.  Finally, as a last resort, he wanders into Nick's Emporium, an 
old-fashioned store chock full of all sorts of gifts and knickknacks.  He has a 
hard time explaining to Nick what he's looking for, but finds himself falling 
under the old storekeeper's spell.  Just when Hughes is about to buy 
something he runs to the street to chase kids away from his car.  When he returns, he 
finds the store suddenly dark and quiet.  A policeman then shows up to run him 
off because, “This place ain’t been open in forty years!”  Hughes finds a 
way back, not only to the store but to a time years ago when he was a younger 
man.  This Yuletide fantasy is full of holiday spirit and humor and makes us all 
wish we could find a “Nick's Emporium.”

Production dates are: December 19, 20 and 21st. 2003.

Those auditioning should come prepared to read from the script.  Please 
contact the director at 330-673-5378 ASAP to schedual an appointment to audition.
