Casting Call: 'Moon Over Buffalo'

Somerset Valley Players will hold auditions for "Moon Over Buffalo."

Zany shenanigans comically light up a backstage dressing room in 1953 Buffalo. A married pair of boisterous and bickering actors continually confuse their plays while coping with misunderstood identities and slamming doors.

Auditions will take place at the theater from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on March 23 and 31.

Roles are:

George Hay
50s
A pompous, megalomaniac, drunken actor, who does not want to admit he is getting old.
Charlotte Hay
50s
Very attractive leading lady, a larger than life drama queen. Must be able to do an upper-class British accent.
Ethel
70s
Must be old enough to be believable as Charlotte's mother. Grumpy, trouble-maker,with a huge stage presence and strong comedic skills. Hard of hearing.
Rosalind "Roz" Hay
20s to 30s
Sweet, attractive, thinks she knows what she wants, but is torn. Must be able to do an upper-class British accent.
Howard
20s to 30s
Must be able to do strong physical comedy. A wimp, a little annoying, nervous and very excitable.
Eileen 20s Bombshell babe. Play naive yet can be a bit manipulative. She has the looks to get what she wants.
Paul
30s
Must be able to do strong physical comedy. Leading man type with a quiet, subtle sense of humor. Must be able to do an upper-class British accent.
