Hello NeohioPal Folk Due to a computer malfunction, I lost some of the emails from actors who sent me information, clips, and resumes for our upcoming Wilde Whitman Stoker Program. Just to make sure, would those who sent information to me please do so again? I want to be certain that everyone who is interested has a chance to audition. My apologies to those who sent materials that I was unable to view before the glitch occurred. Tim Tavcar artsbear401(a)gmail.com

WEDDING FROM HELL
by Vanessa Cook 08 May '23

08 May '23

*The Norwalk Arts Center is pleased to announce auditions. These are NON-equity, NON-paid roles.* Auditions will be held at 22 E Main St, Norwalk Ohio Performances will be held at 10 Prospect St in Norwalk, Ohio *INTERACTIVE PLAY/Murder Mystery * *80's WEDDING FROM HELL (NACtors- 18+)* This years’ murder mystery dinner show will be a 1980’s themed event. Diners can enjoy dinner, show, bar service, raffles and prizes. WEDDING FROM HELL will leave the audience with good vibes! The Milestone Event Center will be transformed into a 1980's themed Wedding and Reception Hall! *The talented NACtors will be holding auditions May 30th and 3st1, 2023, the show will be performed August 4th and 5th, 2023.* The show is an audience participation mystery where costumed attendees get to meet the characters before the action begins, take part in a clue hunt and work to solve the crime at the end of the show. Written by Eileen Moushey, WEDDING FROM HELL will take you back to the 80's where hair was big, but shoulder pads were bigger! You’ve been to weddings where something goes wrong? Try everything. Bruce and Tina face it all. The groom’s snobbish, aristocratic mother, Sylvia, registers her disapproval of the nuptials by wearing black and attempting to dissuade him from the marriage even as the Bridal March begins. The soloist looks as if he’s a Guns And Roses groupie. The judge hired to perform the ceremony is drunk. The wrong tux was delivered to the bride’s father, Jackie, who tries to ease the tension by trying out some of the gags from his novelty store (including a whoopie cushion for Sylvia). The photographer is an old boyfriend of Tina’s. Bruce’s old girlfriend interrupts the wedding. The family maid uses the ceremony to declare her love for the groom. The cake is a mess. Tina’s dress came from a thrift store, due to a last minute mix-up. She breaks the heel from her shoe as she comes down the aisle. The wedding napkins read “Bruce and Tuna.” A stranger shows up in time to die. You get the picture. Join us in this fun, mysterious, hilarious show!! *AUDITION PREPActors should prepare a short comical monologue and be ready for a cold read.
