Friday,  July 6th (10 - 5pm) and Saturday,  July 7th (9:30am - 1:30) by  
appointment. 
WE  GOTTA BINGO is being produced by Actors Theater of Minnesota in 
conjunction with  Playhouse Square.  Director is Ross Young (Tony n' Tina's  Wedding). 
Auditions  will be held in the Red Rehearsal Hall (formerly the West 
Rehearsal  Hall) @ 1650  Chester Avenue (State  Theatre Stage Door entrance.) 
To schedule, the number for the audition hotline is 216-348-7903  and the 
email is _auditions at playhousesquare.org_ (mailto:auditions at playhousesquare.org)   
   APPTS will be 2 ACTORS at a time,  scheduled 10 minutes apart.  If there 
is someone you would like to "play"  with, please schedule  together. 
Seeking  strong comedic actors (AEA & NON) who are comfortable with 
improvisation.  Roles for character actors as well as some in their 20s, 30s. Some 
sing.   Also needed are musicians who can play in a polka band (must be 
comfortable  having fun onstage). 
Please  prepare a comic monologue and, if you sing, and a short song to sing 
without  accompaniment. Musicians could bring an accordion, guitar or any 
other fun  instrument - piano will be provided if you play keys.  There will be 
some  improvisation. 
WGB  is an interactive bingo "fun-raiser" in a German beer hall.  "Funds" are 
 being raised in order to complete the merger of St. Dominic's and St 
Patrick's  parishes.  One being predominately Italian and the other being Irish,  
conflicts abound.  The Diocese has promised to match funds for the mandated  
merger if the two congregations can show a willingness to get along.   Characters 
include a professional BINGO caller and his perky assistant, a nun, 2  choir 
directors, Helmut Voekel  (proprietor of the Brew-Ha-Ha) and the  polka band 
(The Voekel Chords), Father Duncan, Rosa Dimini (the hostess) and  several other 
lovable characters.  The show is family fun & quite  entertaining! 
Hope  to see you at the auditions! Thanks for your time. 
Jacqi Loewy, Casting Consultant (I will be happy to answer  questions via 
email as I have seen the show.  It has been running  successfully for 2 years in 
St. Paul and is  hilarious!).
