Rehearsals and Performances: Anticipate at least two rehearsals per week, with frequency increasing as the production date approaches. Depending on the role, actors may not be required to attend all rehearsals. Please bring any known schedule conflicts to auditions.

Cast List/Descriptions: Ages listed are for audition purposes only; the age of the actor cast in the role may differ from what’s described.
Note: The roles of Beatrice, Eaddy, Maude, Imogene, Sam, and Laureen have been cast by returning actors, but will be re-cast if any are unable to continue in the series. Those auditioning and not cast for a role may be considered to help the production in other ways.
Gladys Van Dyke: Barn Lot Theater is looking for our Gladys! She's the self-proclaimed resident Broadway diva of Magnolia Place -- haughty, high-strung, and endlessly dramatic. Gladys fiercely guards her age and vanity as she name-drops legends of the stage to remind everyone of her past stage glory. If you can play a loud, comedic, larger-than-life character with grand exits and massive energy, come show us your best diva!
Clovis Crown: Ready to step in as the quiet center of a chaotic storm? Barn Lot Theatre needs our Clovis! He's the sweet, gentle, and perpetually timid resident of Magnolia Place. Think of him as a senior Linus van Pelt -- endearingly soft-spoken, fiercely loyal, and constantly dragged into the wild antics around him. While he's stepped somewhat back into his quiet, awkward shell, he brings a deep, earnest heart (and brilliant physical comedy) to the madness. If you can play a charming, gentle character with subtle comedic timing who holds his own amidst total chaos, come audition!
