Subject: African Amerian Actor Needed!

Catalina Players is looking for an African American actor to play Lucien in the May 2006 production of The Boys Next Door.  Lucien is late 40's to early 50's, very slow, mentally challenged. 
 
We are also auditioning for the roll of Sheila, a mentally challenged female, overweight, late 20's early 30's.
 
Auditions will take place Thursday March 2nd (or by special appointments) from 6:30 PM to 9:00 PM at Christ Presbyterian Church on Broadway just east of Wilmot after Burger King and a couple of houses.  Call Bill Fikaris, Director at 730-7203 or Priscilla Marquez, Executive Director at 304-9171 for further information .
 
The Boys Next Door is about four mentally handicapped men live under the supervision of an earnest, but increasingly "burned out" young social worker.  Mingled with scenes from the daily lives of these four, where "little things" sometimes become momentous (and often very funny), are moments of great poignancy when, with touching effectiveness, we are reminded that the handicapped, like the rest of us, want only to love and laugh and find some meaning and purpose in the brief time which they, like their more fortunate brothers, are allotted on this earth.
 
Play opens May 12, 13, 19, 20, 2006, at Academy Hall 6653 E. Carondelet Dr. Atria Bell Court Gardens by The Catalina Players.
