A diabolical solution presents itself in the form of one of his graduate students whose script promises to deliver. *DEATHTRAP* provides an abundance of twists and turns and offers hilariously sudden shocks for audiences who will be spellbound until the very last moment. This not-to-be-missed play is the granddaddy of well-written thrillers. CHARACTERS: Sidney Bruhl: 50ish, polished, dashing, devious, clever ... thinks he's the smartest man in the room and wants people to know it; is "on stage" even when at home. Clifford Anderson: 18-30s, a student; very attractive, boyish and handsome at the same time; physically fit. He is clever; know's HE's the smartest man in the room and can bide his tine to display it. Covers this with innocence, affection and naïveté. Myra Bruhl: 40-60, sophisticated, upper-class, but embraces the country life; innocent, sweet, caring, emotional, nervous, even skittish, supportive of Sydney's career and moods, but grows some backbone when he crosses the line. Helga ten Dorp: Psychic. Any age. Wild, individual Gypsy-like; in and out of her world and this world; knows she's a celebrity and buys into the show of her gift; has a Dutch/German accent; is disarming and brave when faced with pain and violence. Porter Pilgrim: Professional, solid, observant. *WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU COME PLAY WITH US! SO AUDITION!!!* -- Workshop Players Theatre 44820 Middle Ridge Road P.O.

TWO Men (18-35) needed for roles in world-premiere of "1970"
by Chagrin Valley Little Theatre 21 Jun '23

21 Jun '23

*Chagrin Valley Little Theatre is looking to fill two male roles in the World Premiere of * * * *1970* * * *Written By Scott Lax* * * *Directed By Brian Westerley* Performance Dates: September 22nd - October 1st. Rehearsals will start on or around August 6th. Both a love story and a wartime chronicle, this powerful play reveals the effects of the Vietnam War on a group of friends living in a small town in Northeast Ohio. The play opens in September of 1970, four months after the shootings at nearby Kent State of May 4, 1970, and months before the Vietnam War draft lottery of 1971. The script is based on Lax's novel, /The Year That Trembled/, which was also made into a feature film. The young men must examine their views of war and consider the fate that awaits them; the young women and other townspeople face the possibility of losing their husbands, boyfriends and friends. Each member of the group embarks on a personal search that will bring very real and very adult conflict and pain and strip away their youthful naivete. As the play hurtles toward life-changing consequences, the enormity of this war contrasted with the microcosm of one small town exposes the desires, the betrayals, the loves and the ability to forgive, of characters who are at war within themselves. * * *Looking to fill the roles of: * * Phil Rose – M, 18-30, sensitive and spiritual, an aspiring singer-songwriter in search of true love * Charlie Kerrigan – M, 20-35, gave up rock guitar to be a family man. Paints houses but hopes to go to law school and someday run for Congress. ALL ETHNICITIES & GENDER IDENTITIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO AUDITION If interested, contact the director at westerleybrian(a)gmail.com to schedule an audition.

DOUBT at Beck Center for the Arts
by Julie Gilliland 21 Jun '23

21 Jun '23

Beck Center for the Arts Announces Acclaimed Play, Doubt: A Parable, With Powerful Performances In A Compelling Story Beck Center for the Arts<http://www.beckcenter.org/> will produce the Pulitzer Prize-winning, captivating, Doubt: A Parable, May 26 to June 25, 2023 in the intimate Studio Theater. Written by John Patrick Shanley<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Patrick_Shanley>, Doubt: A Parable<https://www.beckcenter.org/shows/doubt> is a gripping story of suspicion and morality set in a Catholic school in the 1960s. When a popular priest is accused of misconduct, a determined nun becomes convinced of his guilt, despite having no evidence to support her claim. Doubt: A Parable has been performed in theaters around the world and was adapted into a critically acclaimed film in 2008 with standout performances by Meryl Streep and Viola Davis. The play has won numerous awards, including the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 2005, and has been called a modern classic. The play explores themes of power, authority, and the dangers of certainty in the face of ambiguity. This locally produced work includes a performance by the incomparable talent, Derdriu Ring<https://www.linkedin.com/in/derdriu-ring-9a409227/>, who plays Sister Aloysius, an Christopher Bohan<https://theater.case.edu/faculty/christopher-bohan/>, who plays Father Brendan Flynn, both members of Actor's Equity Association. Director Don Carrier<https://www.clevelandplayhouse.com/education/cwrucph-mfa/leadership-faculty>, head of the CWRU/CPH MFA Acting Program<https://www.clevelandplayhouse.com/education/cwrucph-mfa> states, "I saw the original production of Doubt: A Parable a number of years ago and was taken by its ambivalence, suspense and element of mystery. The central question about truth and certainty is something we all experience. And while the play was written as a reaction or response to a specific place and time in the world- in that case, the Iraq War--it remains a potent play because of the personal dynamics at play. Truth, faith, certainty, doubt. We struggle to align these things. I hope our audience will experience that doubt as the play unfolds. Where does truth live?" "The grey gulf between Sister Aloysius and Father Flynn's entrenched positions is where the audience are left to swim. The play leaves us, unnervingly, in that place of doubt." The Guardian Ticket prices from $38 (adults), $34 (for seniors 65 and older) and $17 for students with valid ID. A $3 service fee per single ticket will be applied at time of purchase. Curtain times are 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 2:30 p.m. Sundays. Preview performances are 7:30 p.m. the Thursday before opening night, with general-admission seating for just $10. Smart Seats(r) are available for each performance at just $10 per person.

Produced through special arrangement with Dramatists All performances are at theaters inside Beck Center for the Arts<http://www.beckcenter.org/> located at 17801 Detroit Avenue in Lakewood, just ten minutes west of downtown Cleveland. Free onsite parking is available. For more information visit beckcenter.org<http://www.beckcenter.org/>. Beck Center for the Arts is proud to be a part of Northeast Ohio's professional theater landscape, operating under a letter of agreement with Actors' Equity Association.
