Summary: Pushed to the boiling point, three female coworkers concoct a plan to get even with the sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot they call their boss. In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy, and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy – giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains “otherwise engaged,” the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. Hey, a girl can scheme, can’t she?

The 39 Steps, by Patrick Barlow, John Bunchan

Directed by Lois Heagy

Summary: In The 39 Steps, a man with a boring life meets a woman with a thick accent who says she’s a spy. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called “The 39 Steps” is hot on the man’s trail in a nationwide manhunt that climaxes in a death-defying finale! A riotous blend of virtuoso performances and wildly inventive stagecraft, The 39 Steps amounts to an unforgettable evening of pure pleasure!

Show runs July 24-August 9

In addition to public performances, private performances may be scheduled on 7/26, 7/28, 8/3, 8/4

CASTING:  (ages listed are playing ages)

Richard Hannay (35-40): A middle-aged Englishman, bored and boring, to whom nothing every happens. Until now…

Annabella Schmidt/Pamela/Margaret/Mrs Jordan (35+):  Accents are required (German, Scottish, English)

Clown 1 & Clown 2 (playing ages not important):  The bulk of the action is handled by these two actors. While normally played by men, the director is open to casting one woman and one man. Acceptable accents (not farcical, please) are an absolute must and the actors must be physically able to handle the roles, as there is a lot of running, falling, etc.

• Auditions will be cold reads from the script, with a touch of “Whose Line is it Anyway” thrown in.

The script guarantees that the actors will lose a minimum of 5 pounds playing these roles. This should give you an idea of what to look forward to with this show.

VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION!

In addition to the actors, this show requires a substantial number of dressers and crew, as nearly all costume changes are very quick, sometimes on-stage, and the set is changed in front of the live audience.  Because of the various locations, the set is often just indicated by a few pieces of furniture, a door frame, perhaps a picture on the wall. The crew and dressers all get their bows, along with the actors. THEY ARE THAT IMPORTANT!  If you wish to participate in this show, but not sure you’re up to challenge of switching characters instantly, please consider joining the crew, whether dresser or set.
