inspiration for the 1939 smash hit movie 
of the same name. The play opens 
March 4, 2011 and runs until March 20th 
with performance on Friday and Saturday nights 
at 7:30 and Sundays at 2:00 

Auditions will be held January 10-11, 2011

Due to an expected high number of actresses wanting to audition, we ask that those interested please email your headshots and resumes to srs2223@live.com. If you don't have a headshot, please include a recent photograph of some type. We do ask, if you are sending a photo, let us see your face, not one of you waving hi to mom and dad at the edge of the Grand Canyon taken from 50 feet away. 

"The Women" centers around a group of New York society women and their men. More precisely, their men troubles. It is a faced paced play driven by dialog. With it's catty remarks and witty reparte, it is an incredibly funny piece. At this time, all roles are open. It is a large cast, and other than the principals and a few supporting roles, there are many "one scene" characters. Actresses will be cast as two or three of these characters to be able to utilize your time and talents to their fullest, and frankly, these characters have some of the best lines in the show. The age range is open so all are welcome to audition. 

There is also a call for the part of "Little Mary" who is the daughter of the main character. Her age range should be between 10 and 14 as the character can be made a bit older than the script calls for. A note to the parents: The subject matter of the play is infidelity and divorce. Some parents may find it too mature for their child or the subject may hit too close to home. Some children are a little more emotionally advanced and understand what things mean. Only you can be the judge and make that decision. Little Mary is in four scenes, two in act one and two in act two. Parents are welcomed to accompany their child through rehearsals and be there through performances. If the parent will not be the one attending, it is asked that the director or stage manager be introduced in advance to the person delegated by the family to accompany or pick up your child.
