[NEohioPAL] Auditions for Cry Havoc, a WWII nurse drama

[Tim Anderson, Education Director via NEohioPAL]

The Broadview Heights Spotlights will be holding auditions for “Cry Havoc”
by Allan R. Kenward on *SATURDAY, AUGUST 8 at 12:00PM* and *TUESDAY, AUGUST
11 at 7:00PM*. No appointment is needed, but auditioners must arrive within
one hour of the start time.


Callbacks, if needed, will be by invitation only and held on the afternoon,
Saturday, August 15.


*Rehearsals will begin the week of September 27* and will typically run
Sunday – Thursday evenings with some weekends, based on cast
availability.  *The
show runs November 6 - 21. * Please bring a list of conflicts between
September 27 and November 21.


*Ryan Bergeron* is directing this dramatic play.  Roles available for 12
strong female actors, able to convincingly portray ages from 17 to 70.
Women of middle age are especially encouraged to audition. A prepared
dramatic monologue is strongly encouraged (although not required,
auditioners may choose to read from the script).


Featuring an all female cast, this is the story of nurses on Bataan during
World War II. In a sort of dugout subjected to gunfire the individual
characters emerge to offer a collective reaction to war. These include the
strong minded doctor, her restrained and poised assistant and the volunteer
nurses: a vacuous Southern girl, a swaggering bully, a couple of timid
aesthetes, an ex-burlesque girl and the inevitable spy. They get on each
other's nerves, arrest the wrong person for spying and confront the real
traitor. They are rescued from their buried dugout only to face the firing
squad. This is a compelling, caustic revelation of human beings under fire.
