Coach House Theatre (732 W. Exchange St., Akron) is holding auditions for
Peter Shaffer's comedy Lettice and Lovage on Sunday, January 30 at 5:30pm,
and Monday, January 31 at 7pm.

 

Lettice Duffet, an expert on Elizabethan cuisine and medieval weaponry, is
an indefatigable but daffy enthusiast of history and the theatre. As a tour
guide at Fustian House, one of the least stately of London's stately homes,
she theatrically embellishes its historical past, ultimately coming up on
the radar of Lotte Schon, an inspector from the Preservation Trust. Neither
impressed nor entertained by Lettice's freewheeling history lessons, Lotte
fires her. Not one, however, to go without a fight, Lettice engages the
stoic, conventional Lotte in a battle to the death of all that is sacred to
the Empire and the crown. 

 

Director Terry Burgler will ask those auditioning to read from the script.
Please choose a scene(s) featuring role(s) for which you would like to be
considered.  Reader provided.

 

Performance dates: March 24 - April 17, 2011

matinee, 2:30 pm, April 2.  No performance on Easter.
