The Broadview Heights Spotlights will be holding auditions for “Cry Havoc” by Allan R. Kenward on SATURDAY, AUGUST 8 at 12:00PM and TUESDAY, AUGUST 11 at 7:00PM. No appointment is needed, but auditioners must arrive within one hour of the start time.  

Callbacks, if needed, will be by invitation only and held on the afternoon, Saturday, August 15. 

Rehearsals will begin the week of September 27 and will typically run Sunday – Thursday evenings with some weekends, based on cast availability.  The show runs November 6 - 21.  Please bring a list of conflicts between September 27 and November 21. 

Ryan Bergeron is directing this dramatic play.  Roles available for 12 strong female actors, able to convincingly portray ages from 17 to 70.  Women of middle age are especially encouraged to audition. A prepared dramatic monologue is strongly encouraged (although not required, auditioners may choose to read from the script). 

Featuring an all female cast, this is the story of nurses on Bataan during World War II. In a sort of dugout subjected to gunfire the individual characters emerge to offer a collective reaction to war. These include the strong minded doctor, her restrained and poised assistant and the volunteer nurses: a vacuous Southern girl, a swaggering bully, a couple of timid aesthetes, an ex-burlesque girl and the inevitable spy. They get on each other's nerves, arrest the wrong person for spying and confront the real traitor. They are rescued from their buried dugout only to face the firing squad. This is a compelling, caustic revelation of human beings under fire.
