Join us tomorrow Friday, August 29 at 7PM, for a one-of-a-kind night where the setlist is determined by your cards. *(This is an entry-level theatre experience: bring your non-theatre friends for a party at the barn!)* *Back by popular demand, BROADWAY BINGO* is at Western Reserve Playhouse for the final time this year! Broadway Bingo is a one-of-a-kind musical experience where we play two games at once! While the audience plays bingo, each tile also corresponds to one of 75 incredible songs, handpicked by our talented ensemble. As the game unfolds, the setlist is determined entirely by fate—neither the audience nor the performers know which songs will be called or who will get their moment to shine. Every performance is as thrilling and unpredictable as drawing the next number in the game!

Auditions are here for Same Time, Next Year and The House of Blue Leaves @ WRP
by August Scarpelli 27 Aug '25

27 Aug '25

THE WESTERN RESERVE PLAYHOUSE IS PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE AUDITIONS FOR THE FINAL TWO PLAYS IN OUR 2025/2026 SEASON SAME TIME, NEXT YEAR A Play by Bernard Slade Full-Length Play, Comedy One of the most popular romantic comedies of the century, Same Time, Next Year ran four years on Broadway, winning a Tony® Award for lead actress Ellen Burstyn, who later recreated her role in the successful motion picture. It remains one of the world’s most widely produced plays. The plot follows a love affair between two people, Doris and George, married to others, who rendezvous once a year. Twenty-five years of manners and morals are hilariously and touchingly played out by the lovers. Directed by Joe Soriano & THE HOUSE OF BLUE LEAVES A Play by John Guare Full-Length Play, Dark Comedy Artie Shaugnessy is a songwriter with visions of glory. Toiling by day as a zookeeper, he suffers in seedy lounges by night, plying his wares at piano bars in Queens, New York, where he lives with his wife, Bananas, much to the chagrin of Artie’s downstairs mistress, Bunny Flingus, who’ll sleep with him anytime but refuses to cook until they are married. On the day the Pope is making his first visit to the city, Artie’s son Ronny goes AWOL from Fort Dix, stowing a homemade bomb intended to blow up the Pope in Yankee Stadium. Also arriving are Artie’s old school chum, now a successful Hollywood producer, Billy Einhorn, with starlet girlfriend in tow, who holds the key to Artie’s dreams of getting out of Queens and away from the life he so despises. But like many dreams, this promise of glory evaporates amid the chaos of ordinary lives.

Oh, no, he’s gentle as a puppy. Anyway he tries to do different things with each of the kids, you know? So he was having a hard time finding something special to do with Tony, our four year old. Then he gets the idea to take him out to fly a kite. So this one Saturday last winter they go out but there’s no wind and they have trouble getting the kite to take off. Well, after a while Tony who’s pretty bored by now, he’s only four years old, asks if he can go sit in the car. Harry said “okay.” (She starts to laugh.) About an hour later I come by on my way home from the laundromat and I see Tony sound asleep in the car and Harry all alone in the park, all red in the face and out of breath pounding up and down with this huge kite dragging along behind him. (She sees that George is not laughing.) Well, it really got to me. GEORGE. Look, I know how you feel, I really do, and I wouldn’t even suggest it if you weren’t a mother . I mean I wouldn't even think of it if this crisis hadn’t come up. (He moves his suitcase to the bed and starts packing through the following.) Oh, it’s not just the tooth-fairy, but she could have swallowed the tooth. It could be lodged God knows where. Now I know this leaves you up in the air but there’s no reason for you to leave too. The room’s all paid for - have you seen my hairbrush? Anyway, I’m probably doing you a favor . If I did stay I wouldn’t be very good company. (Doris throws the hairbrush at him. It sails past his head and crashes into the wall. There is a pause.) You feel somewhat rejected right? I can understand that but I want you to know my leaving has nothing to do with you and me. Doris, I have a sick child at home. This is an emergency. ARTIE. I didn’t tell you this, Bunny. last week, I rode out to Long Island. (to Bananas, taking her hand) You need help. We — I found a nice hosp … By the sea … by the beautiful sea … It’s an old estate and you can walk from the train station and it was raining and the roads aren’t paved so it’s muddy, but by the road where you turn into the estate, there was a tree with blue leaves in the rain — I walked under it to get out of the rain and also because I had never seen a tree with blue leaves and I walked under the tree and all the leaves flew away in one big round bunch — just lifted up, leaving a bare tree. Whoosh…It was birds. Not blue leaves but birds, waiting to go to Florida or California … and all the birds flew to another tree a couple of hundred feet off and that bare tree blossomed — snap! like that — with all these blue very quietleaves… You’ll like the place, Bananas. I talked to the doctor. He had a mustache. You like mustaches. And the Blue Cross will handle a lot of it, so we won’t have to worry about expense … You’ll like the place … a lot of famous people have had crackdowns there, so you’ll be running in good company. BANANAS: I see a scene that you wouldn’t see in your wildest dreams. Forty-second Street. Broadway. Four corners. Four people. One on each corner. All waving for taxis. Cardinal Spellman. Jackie Kennedy. Bob Hope. President Johnson. All carrying suitcases. Taxi! Taxi! I stop in the middle of the street – the middle of Broadway – and I get out of my Green Latrine and yell, “get in.” They keep waving for cabs. I run over to President Johnson and grab him by the arm. “Get in.” And pull Jackie Kennedy into my car and John-John, who I didn’t see, starts crying and Jackie hits me and I hit her and I grab Bob Hope and push Cardinal Spellman into the back seat, crying and laughing, “I’ll take you where you want to go. Get in! Give me your suitcases” - and the suitcases spill open and Jackie Kennedy’s wigs blow down Forty-Second Street and Cardinal Spellman hits me and Johnson screams and I hit him. I hit them all. And then the Green Latrine blew four flat tires and sinks and I run to protect the car and four cabs appear and all my friends run into four different cabs. And cars are honking at me to move. I push the car over the bridge back to Queens. You’re asleep. I turn on Johnny Carson to get my mind off and there’s Cardinal Spellman and Bob Hope, whose ski-nose is still bleeding, and they tell the story of what happened to them and everybody laughs. Thirty million people watch Johnny Carson and they all laugh. At me. At me. I’m nobody. I knew all those people better than me. You. Ronnie. I know everything about them. Why can’t they love me? And then it began to snow and I went up on the roof… BUNNY: Oh, I love you! You said you’ll come with me to see the Pope! That’s tantamount to a promise. Tantamount. Tantamount. You hear that? I didn’t work in a law office for nix. I could sue you for breach of promise. (Near tears) I know what you’re going to say--- I won’t cook for you—You bend my arm and twist my heart, but I got to be strong. Now rinse your mouth out to freshen up and come on, let’s go. It’s really cold out so dress warm—look, I stuffed the New York Post in my booties—plastic just ain’t as warm as it used to be. I won’t cook for you! I cooked veal parmigeena for me last night. It was so good I almost died. But I won’t cook for you till after we’re married. I’m no that kind of girl. I’ll sleep with you anytime you want. Anywhere. In two months I’ve know you, did I refuse you once? Not once! You want me to climb in the bag with you right now? Unzip it—go on—unzip it—Give your fingers a smack and I’m flat on my back. I’ll sew those words into a sampler for you in our new home in California. We’ll hang it right by the front door. Because, Artie, I’m a rotten lay and I know it and you know it and everybody knows it—I’m not good in bed. It’s no insult. I took that sex test in the Reader’s Digest two weeks ago and I scored twelve. Twelve, Artie!! I ran out of that dentist office with tears gushing out of my face. But I face up to the truth about myself. So if I cooked for you now and said I won’t sleep with you till we’re married, you’d look forward to sleeping with me so much that by the time we did get to that motel near Hollywood, I’d be such a disappointment, you’d never forgive me. My cooking is the only thing I got to lure you on with and hold you with. Artie, we got to keep some magic for the honeymoon. It’s my first honeymoon and I want it to be so good, I’m aiming for two million calories. I want to cook for you so bad I walk by the A&P , I get all hot jabs of chili powder inside my thighs...but I can’t till we get those tickets to California safe in my purse, till Billy knows we’re coming, till I got that ring right on my cooking finger...Don’t tempt me....I love you... -- August Scarpelli Artistic Director Western Reserve Playhouse Operations Manager Cain Park august(a)thewrp.org (440)654-3624 -- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

Email Mr. Sanborn at wsanborn(a)us.edu<mailto:wsanborn@us.edu> for more information and audition sides. SYNOPSIS Six strangers in a lonely farmhouse, surrounded by brain-eating zombies – what could go wrong? Night of the Living Dead™ Live is a fun and hilarious re-imagining of George A. Romero’s legendary classic. Set in 1968 and presented in all black and white, it literally feels like the film has been brought to life and placed onstage. The play lovingly examines the movie itself, the period in which it was made, and the film’s undying influence on the horror genre. More than just a recreation of the story, the play celebrates the history and influence of the movie. Through a series of multiple endings, the characters are all faced with different issues and challenges while desperately trying to survive the night. However, their contrasting personalities and agendas always seem to prevent the group from working together. Which leaves us all wondering: Could anyone survive a night of the living dead? AVAILABLE CHARACTERS The original production featured a small cast, and each performer played multiple characters. As such, some characters only appear in one scene. Depending on interest and availability, there may be opportunities to play a single character, or to play multiple characters as part of a larger role. BARBRA – Traditional and put-together at first, but as the events unfold, digresses into a child-like state. JUDY – Kind, approachable, down-to-earth. Tom’s girlfriend. HELEN – Dry, world-weary homemaker. Unamused wife of Harry. Mother of Karen. CHIEF MCCLELLAND – Small town sheriff. Folksy and pragmatic. KAREN – Nine-year-old daughter of Harry and Helen. RADIO ANNOUNCER – Official, energized broadcaster. NEWS ANCHOR – Even keeled, even as the stakes continue to rise. REPORTER – Reports the truth to the American people. SCIENTIST – Share the scientific findings with the reporter. GENERAL – Buries the science and end the interview. DALE – Another young police officer. ZOMBIES – Lots and lots of zombies! Please feel free to email director Will Sanborn at wsanborn(a)us.edu<mailto:wsanborn@us.edu> with any questions. We hope to see you at auditions!
