*Auditions Failure: A Love Story* A musical comedy by Philip Dawkins Directed by Ron Newell *Audition Dates:* Tues., February 8 and Wed., February 9 at 7:00 pm *Show Dates:* May 6 - 29, 2022 Performances on Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8pm, Sunday at 2pm *Story:* By the end of 1928, all three Fail sisters will be dead — expiring in reverse order, youngest to oldest, from blunt object to the head, disappearance, and finally consumption. Tuneful songs, and a whimsical chorus follow the story of Nelly, Jenny June, and Gerty as they live out their lives above the family clock repair shop. A magical, musical fable where, in the end, the power of love is far greater than any individual’s successes or failures. *Cast: *3 Women, 2 Men and an additional 3 for Chorus All parts are mid to late twenties, except members of Chorus can be any age.
