*AUDITIONS – *The Cassidy Theatre for

*DEARLY DEPARTED *

by David Bottrell and Jessie Jones

Directed By: Jenna Messina

Set in the present day, somewhere below the Mason-Dixon Line, the
beleaguered Turpin family proves that living and dying in the South is
seldom tidy, often revealing and quite hilarious. Despite their earnest
efforts to pull themselves together for their father's funeral, the
Turpin's other misfortunes and secrets continue overshadowing the solemn
occasion. Amidst the chaos, they turn for comfort to their friends and
neighbors, an eccentric community of misfits who just manage to pull
together and help each other through their hours of need.

*DEARLY DEPARTED *opened Off-Broadway on December 3, 1991:

"If you were amused by the kind of bucolic mayhem of…GREATER TUNA, this
more ambitious trip down a rustic main street could be just your dish of
cola." —NY Post.

"Dearly Departed is drop dead funny." —NY Daily News.
