[NEohioPAL] Auditions: ​Failure: A Love Story on Tues., Feb. 8 and Wed., Feb. 9 at 7:00 pm

[Clague Playhouse]

*Auditions Failure: A Love Story*
A musical comedy by Philip Dawkins
Directed by Ron Newell


*Audition Dates:* Tues., February 8 and Wed., February 9 at 7:00 pm
*Show Dates:*  May 6 - 29, 2022  Performances on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday at 8pm, Sunday at 2pm
*Story:*  By the end of 1928, all three Fail sisters will be dead —
expiring in reverse order, youngest to oldest, from blunt object to the
head, disappearance, and finally consumption. Tuneful songs, and a
whimsical chorus follow the story of Nelly, Jenny June, and Gerty as they
live out their lives above the family clock repair shop. A magical, musical
fable where, in the end, the power of love is far greater than any
individual’s successes or failures.

*Cast:  *3 Women, 2 Men and an additional 3 for Chorus
All parts are mid to late twenties, except members of Chorus can be any
age.  This is a show with music.  All cast will play multiple roles which
could include clocks, dogs, snakes, and assorted other animals/things.
*Nelly Fail *– the youngest
*Jenny June Fail* – the middlest
*Gertrude Fail* – the eldest
*John N. Fail* –  the adopted brother
*Mortimer Mortimer* – the lover (must sing and move well)
*Chorus* – all cast will be in chorus

This is a high energy show.  Cast members should be physically fit.

Open auditions will consist of cold readings from the script, movement,
singing and ability to perform various voices - snakes, parakeets, and
different characters. A pianist will be provided.
