Assassins combines Stephen Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music with a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins. Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, Assassins is perhaps the most controversial musical ever written. >From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, Sondheim and Weidman bend the rules of time and space: you'll be taken on a nightmarish roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from different historical periods meet, interact, and inspire each other to harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream.

Auditions for "The Father" at Fine Arts

Requirements & Preparation: * Appointments Needed. Call Ann Hedger at 440-951-7500 x103. * Come prepared to cold-read from the script. * Please bring a headshot or snapshot. Casting Information: Cast of 3 males and 3 females, ages 25-80+ ALL roles are available. Full character descriptions at www.fineartsassociation.org/audition.html<http://www.fineartsassociation.org/audition.html> The Fine Arts Association supports non-traditional casting. No AEA contracts available for this production. The Story: This moving play by Florian Zeller and translated by Christopher Hampton premiered in Paris in 2012. It gained critical acclaim when it premiered in England in 2014 and then made its American premiere in 2016 on Broadway with Frank Langela. "Andre' is a man facing persecution from all sides, and he refuses to take it any longer. First some girl, a "helper" -- whom he doesn't need at all -- steals his favorite watch. Then his daughter Anne, a scheming woman who worries too much, tries to take his flat away -- the beautiful flat he's had for over thirty years, in which he is still quite capable of living, thank you very much! His daughter Elise, the one he actually loves... where is she? She never comes to visit. Anne's husband -- or lover -- Pierre, with whom she is moving to London -- or staying in Paris -- threatens Andre with violence if he will not cooperate, and to top it off, strangers keep entering Andre's flat, telling him that they are his friends and family, telling him that he doesn't live in his flat anymore. However aged he may be, Andre knows that he is a powerful man, a man of authority, and he will find some way to assert it. After all, he still has all his faculties.... Doesn't he? In a darkly humorous and deeply poignant translation by Christopher Hampton, Florian Zeller's 'The Father' is a tragi-comic mystery, a sobering and realistic family story, and an unsentimental, emotionally intense look at the world through the eyes of a man experiencing dementia, a dramatic illustration of the physical losses which occur along with the mental ones." ... Stage Agent "...harrowing...an exceedingly ingenious premise..." -The New York Times. "...hugely rewarding...a play that constantly confounds expectations and works almost like a thriller, with a sinister Pinteresque edge...full of guile, particularly in the way it toys with time, yet is also simplicity itself, and is never tricksy. [THE FATHER] constantly makes you question the truth and the nature of reality...an astonishingly unguarded play about the cruelties of love and the limits of patience, and the way child-parent relationships become inverted as old age creeps up and mugs us." -The Guardian (UK). "...devastating and disorienting...THE FATHER is one of those plays that makes your brain hum with the unique potential of theatre..." -The Independent (London).
