Written by Michael Frayn (Noises Off), Alarms and Excursionsexplores the
difficulties of modern technology in 8 short plays presented in a Coffee House
format.
 
In Alarms, two couples embark on a
dinner party that is doomed to failure as, one by one, labor saving devices
become hostile. Doublessees two couples having similar problems in adjacent
hotel rooms. In Leavings, the previous dinner party is revisited to great
amusement. In Look Away Now, passengers ignore the airline's safety lecture. Heart
to Heartdeals with the impossibility of communication at a noisy
cocktail party. Glasnostpresents a political speech that is sabotaged by a
harassed autocue operator. Toasters shows the problems of
trying to eat and work standing up at a social function. The last play,
Immobiles, is acted out entirely over the phone as a couple tries to
decide where they should meet their German guests: Gatwick or Heathrow?
 
Auditioners will read from the script and may be asked
to participate in a short improv exercise. Headshots and resumes are
appreciated but not required. Please bring a list of potential conflicts to
auditions.  There are roles for 4-20
