AUDITIONS for NUNCRACKERS at CLAGUE PLAYHOUSE extended to TONIGHT Monday August 24th1371 Clague Rd. Westlake, Ohio 44145 Nuncrackers: The Nunsense Christmas Musical is the first "TV Special" taped by the sisters in their convent basement studio for Cable Access. It stars the nuns you love plus Father Virgil and some of Mt. Saint Helen's most talented students. This show is filled with "Nunsense" humor, some of your favorite carols, a "Secret Santa," and an uproarious take on the Nutcracker Ballet.   It's the perfect way to insure your holiday season is merry and bright! Director/Choreographer Kim Mihalik & Music Director Jayne Bartish-Kacik are looking for the following performers: Reverend Mother - 40's and up - Mezzo-Soprano (bordering on Alto)
The Mother Superior of the Little Sisters of Hoboken. She tries to be strict and keep order, but things often get out of her control. She grew up in a circus family and her "showbiz" background and sense of humor always shines through her attempt at creating a tough exterior. Sister Mary Hubert - 30's and up - Mezzo-Soprano (Gospel style vocals)
Second in command to Mother Superior. She wanted to be a nun all her life and at times finds it difficult to deal with problems she believes are created by Mother Superior's ineptness. Very practical. She and Mother Superior have a healthy and humorous rivalry. Sister Robert Anne - 20's and up - Mezzo-Soprano (Belter)
Streetwise nun from Brooklyn, NY. She is one tough cookie, but has a heart and soul of gold. The students love her because she speaks their language. She feels she has real theatrical potential and is constantly frustrated by Reverend Mother's refusal to let her star in the show. Sister Amnesia - 20's and up - Mezzo-Soprano (Country style vocals)
Was hit on the head with a crucifix and for a long period didn't remember who she was. Now, everyone knows she is Sister Mary Paul, a country singer who jump-started her recording career as the first un to appear at the Grand Ole Opry. Even though she has her memory back, she always seems to be a "little vacant" but innocently endearing. Sister Mary Leo - 20's and up - Any Vocal Part or Non-Singing
A former novice nun, her dream is to be the first nun ballerina. Note: Sister Mary Leo only appears briefly at the beginning and end of the show and will double as stage crew. Father Virgil - 30's and up - Tenor/high-Baritone
Grew up in the Mississippi Delta where he and his sister were part of the Trott Family Singers. He now has his own radio show and the sisters invited him to participate in the Christmas program because they knew he could give them pointers on presenting a good show. Students - ages 8-18 
Louise | Maria | Billy | John
Students of Mount Saint Helen's Catholic School who are chosen by their teachers to help out the Sisters with the Christmas Program. An extra evening for auditions will be held at Clague Playhouse on Monday August 24th starting at 7PM; no appointments will be necessary. Please bring music either from the show or in the style of the show. Musical rehearsals will begin shortly after casting. The show runs November 13 thru December 13 – Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 8:00pm and Sunday at 2:00pm. (No show on Thanksgiving) For further information or directions please contact Clague Playhouse at 440-331-0403
