Auditions
Failure: A Love Story
A musical farce 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.
