Seeking Director for "Moon Over Buffalo" by Ken Ludwig
by Tim Anderson 08 May '25

08 May '25

The Broadview Heights Spotlights is seeking applications for the position of director for "Moon Over Buffalo" by Ken Ludwig. Performances: August 29, 2025–September 13, 2025 Audition Date Target: Week of June 15 Rehearsal Start Date Target: Week of July 13 Ideal candidates must be able to show strong comedic sensibility and a knack for physical comedy. The play is farcical in nature and includes rapid-fire entrances, exits, and mistaken identities. Experience with broad, character-driven comedy is crucial, as is the ability to guide actors in finding both the humor and the underlying humanity in these larger-than-life personalities. They should also possess excellent pacing skills to keep the energy high and the laughs coming, while ensuring the emotional through-line of George and Charlotte's relationship remains clear amidst the chaos. A collaborative spirit and a willingness to embrace the play's inherent silliness are also highly desirable. Please email a statement of interest, along with any resume or examples of experience materials, to Spotlights' Board President, Tara Corkery, at president(a)broadview-heights-spotlights.org by 3:00PM on Sunday, June 1.
