Auditions for AND THEN THERE WERE NONE
by Avenue Arts Marketplace & Theatre 23 Jul '18

23 Jul '18

Avenue Arts Marketplace and Theatre announces auditions for Agatha Christie's AND THEN THERE WERE NONE Located at 324 Cleveland Ave. NW Canton, Ohio 44702 SYNOPSIS: Ten strangers are summoned to a remote island. All that the guests have in common is a wicked past they're unwilling to reveal and a secret that will seal their fate. For each has been marked for murder. As the weather turns and the group is cut off from the mainland, the bloodbath begins and one by one they are brutally murdered in accordance with the lines of a sinister nursery rhyme. Directed by: Joseph Soriano Stage Manager: Sloan Kyler Auditions will be held August 14th and 15th from 7-9pm. All auditioners are asked to come prepared to cold read from the script. We also ask that you bring a current headshot/resume. All Avenue Arts Actors are considered volunteers and will be unpaid. Rehearsals will begin August 19th and will generally run Sun-Thursday evenings. Show dates are October 12,13, 19, 20th at 8pm and 14th at 2pm CHARACTERS: Anthony Marston (Male, 18-25) - killed two young children (John and Lucy Combes) while driving recklessly, for which he felt no real remorse nor did he accept any personal responsibility, complaining only that his driving license had been suspended as a result. He was the first island victim, poisoned with potassium Cyanide slipped into his drink while the guests were listening to the fateful gramophone recording. ("One choked his little self ...") Mrs. Rogers (Female, 30-40) - cook/housekeeper and Thomas Rogers' wife, described as a pale and ghostlike woman who walks in mortal fear. She was dominated by her bullying husband, who withheld the medicine of their former employer (an elderly spinster, Miss Jennifer Brady) to collect an inheritance they knew she had left them in her will. Mrs Rogers was haunted by the crime for the rest of her life, and was Owen's second victim, dying in her sleep peacefully from an overdose of Chloral Hydrate in her brandy. ("One overslept himself ...") General Mackenzie (Male, 40-50) - retired World War I war hero, who sent his late wife's lover (a younger officer, Arthur Richmond) to his death by assigning him to a mission where it was practically guaranteed he would not survive. Leslie Macarthur had mistakenly put the wrong letters in the envelopes on one occasion when she wrote to both men at the same time. The general fatalistically accepts that no one will leave the island alive, which he tells Vera Claythorne. Shortly thereafter, he is bludgeoned while sitting along the shore. ("One said he'd stay there...") Thomas Rogers (Male, 30-40) - butler and Ethel Rogers' husband. He dominated his weak-willed wife and they killed their former elderly employer by withholding her medicine, causing the woman to die from heart failure and inheriting the money she bequeathed them in her will. He was killed when bludgeoned with an axe as he cut firewood in the woodshed. ("One chopped himself in halves ...") Emily Brent (Female, 50-70) - an elderly, religiously rigid, socially respectable spinster who accepted the vacation on Soldier Island largely due to financial constraints. Years earlier, she had dismissed her young maid, Beatrice Taylor, for becoming pregnant out of wedlock. Beatrice, who had already been rejected by her parents for the same reason, drowned herself, which Miss Brent considered an even worse sin. She refuses to discuss the matter with the gentlemen, telling them, "I have always acted in accordance with the dictates of my conscience. I have nothing with which to reproach myself." Later, she confides what happened regarding Beatrice Taylor to Vera Claythorne, who tells the others shortly before Miss Brent is found dead herself. She was sedated with chloral hydrate in her coffee, leaving her disorientated, before being injected in the neck with potassium cyanide while left alone in the kitchen, with one of Dr Armstrong's hypodermic syringes ("A bumblebee stung one...") Dr. Armstrong (Male, 40-60) - doctor, responsible for the death of a patient, Louisa Mary Clees, after he operated on her while drunk, many years earlier. Armstrong foolishly trusts Wargrave, and, while rendezvousing with the judge on a rocky cliff, is pushed into the sea and drowns ("A red herring swallowed one..."). His body goes missing for a while, leading the others to believe he is the killer, but his corpse is found at the end leading to the climax. William Blore (Male, 40-50) - retired police inspector and now a private investigator, accused of falsifying his testimony in court for a bribe from a criminal gang too dangerous to double-cross, which resulted in an innocent man, James Landor, being convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment and who died in prison. Blore arrives using the alias "Davis" and claiming to have arrived from South Africa, as he was instructed to do by Isaac Morris, who hired him for "security" work, but is confronted about his true name which was revealed on the gramophone recording, and he acknowledges his true identity. He denies the accusation against him from the gramophone recording but later privately admits the truth to Lombard. His skull was crushed by a bear-shaped clock dropped from Vera's bedroom window onto the terrace below. ("A big bear hugged one...") Philip Lombard (Male, 30-40) - soldier, he comes to the island with a loaded revolver, as suggested by Isaac Morris. Lombard is accused of causing the deaths of a number of East African tribesmen, after stealing their food and leaving them to starve. He, along with Marston, are the only guests to openly and immediately confirm that the accusations against them are true; neither feels remorse. Lombard fulfilled the ninth referenced verse of the rhyme, shot by Vera, who believed him to be the murderer but survives to kill the real killer. ("One gets frizzled up...") Vera Claythorn (Female, 18-25) - cool, efficient, resourceful former teacher and governess, who has taken mostly secretarial jobs since her last job as a governess ended in the death of her charge, whom she intentionally allowed to swim out to sea – as the child had wanted to do but had theretofore been denied as too dangerous – and drown. She did this so her lover could become the family heir, inherit the estate and marry her. She swam out to sea to "save" the child to make it seem he had disobeyed her – as she had consistently told him it was too dangerous – but knowing she would not arrive in time. Hugo, however, who loved his nephew, abandoned her after he somehow sensed what she had done. She is one of the only survivors but was meant to be the 10th little Soldier. ("One little Soldier Boy left all alone; He went out and hanged himself and then there were none.") Sir Lawrence Wargrave (Male, 50-60) - retired judge known for liberally awarding the dealth penalty in different murder cases, and is revealed at the end to be the killer on the island. Wargrave fakes his own death as the sixth murder on the island, with Armstrong's help, creating an enormous red herring that fools everyone, and then kills Armstrong once the doctor's verdict of his death is accepted by the other visitors. Killed by Lombard saving Vera in the end. Fred Narcott (Male, 18-65) - brings people and supplies to the island.
