A group of unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo, New York come together to raise money by taking off their clothes in a one-night performance, emulating the touring Chippendales-style companies that have bewitched the town's working women. Down on their luck and emasculated by the women in their lives, the men overcome body issues, sexist views, bigotry, and plain old fear to find strength and confidence in each other, ultimately taking it all off with pride.
Please prepare a contemporary, rock or pop musical theatre song, showing range and personality.
SEEKING:
[CAST] PRINCIPAL ROLES:
JERRY LUKOWSKI (28-35 yrs old) unemployed mill worker, fighting to maintain his pride and custody of his cherished only son. All-American jock, former “golden boy”, a lady-killer and a man’s man before the bottom fell out. Seeking a charismatic, sexy, singing actor who brings killer pop vocal chops (comfortably belts high A’s) and exciting passion and spontaneity.
DAVE BUKATINSKY (30-38 yrs old) Jerry’s best friend and fellow unemployed mill worker. Self-conscious about his size (Dave is a BIG guy...meaning his belly is a prominent feature). The definitive sidekick...still a man’s man but a follower not a leader. Seeking an overweight comic singing actor with tons of likability and surprising vulnerability.
NOAH “HORSE” T. SIMMONS (45-60 yrs old) Retired mill worker...African-American “grumpy old man” who surprises us with his explosive dance moves. Seeking big, winning personality who has the moves authentically inside him and ready to show them.
MALCOLM MACGREGOR (25-35 yrs old) unemployed mill worker. Depressed, suicidal, awkward...still lives at home with Mom. Blossoms as he finds unexpected comfort and romance with Ethan. Seeking funny and tender singing actor.
ETHAN GIRARD (25-35 yrs old) unemployed mill worker. Lonely. Has a blind determination and confidence to succeed. A little eccentric, but very likable. Surprised and quietly delighted by his connection with Malcolm. Seeking actor in complete physical charge of his body and with no fear ( attempts to run up the wall of the proscenium... unsuccessfully...for most of the show).
HAROLD NICHOLS (40-55yrs old) unemployed mill supervisor. Becomes Hot Metal’s choreographer by virtue of his ballroom training so some dance is good. The only “white collar” guy in our bunch. A snob who eventually becomes one of the guys.
BUDDY “KENO” WALSH (25-35 yrs old) the male stripper who makes the girls scream. Seeking a dancer with a killer body who has serious acting chops. Doubles in smaller roles throughout.
NOTE: ALL SEVEN ROLES ABOVE MUST BE COMFORTABLE WITH NUDITY. KENO WILL APPEAR IN ONLY A G-STRING...AND THE OTHER SIX MEN WILL INDEED NEED TO GO “THE FULL MONTY” BY SHOW’S END
GEORGIE BUKATINSKY (30-38 yrs old) Dave’s wife. Loud, outgoing, brash...the “leader” of the wives and girlfriends. Seeking a charismatic, funny, blue-collar gal of any size with a huge belt voice and a bigger heart.
VICKI NICHOLS (40-50 yrs old) Harold’s wife...adores Harold and loves the finer things in life his job affords them. Seeking a fun, seemingly silly actress who makes us laugh at her over the top vocals and antics...and also surprises us with her classy support for her struggling husband.
PAM LUKOWSKI (28-35 yrs old) Jerry’s estranged wife and high school sweetheart. As pretty as Jerry was “hot” we can see how she was half of that “golden couple” She has clear blue-collar roots...but her smarts and determination are moving her up the management ladder. No nonsense...but still has a “mom’s” warmth and compassion
JEANETTE BURMEISTER (65-80 yrs old) Piano player of indeterminate years...a total old pro. She’s been married eight times and has seen...and done...it all. Sassy, quick-witted, larger than life. Actual piano playing ability a plus.
NATHAN LUKOWSKI (11-12 yrs old) Pam and Jerry’s sweet and smart (beyond his years) son. Trying hard to bridge the gap between his caring mother and his adored dad. Seeking an honest and natural pre-teen actor...short is best.
ENSEMBLE ROLES:
JOANIE LISH ET AL (28-40 yrs old) friend of Georgie and Pam..blue-collar, fun, sassy, noisy, can be any ethnicity (African-American would be great) Doubles throughout in smaller roles.
SUSAN HERSHEY ET AL (35-50 yrs old) friend of Georgie and Pam..blue-collar, the slightly older gal at work who loves to grab a beer with the girls before she heads home to the old ball and chain Doubles throughout in smaller roles.
ESTELLE GENOVESE ET AL (20-25yrs old) Jerry’s new girlfriend...the youngest, and decidedly sluttiest of the bunch. She’s a hottie...in a funny and trashy way. Doubles throughout in smaller roles.
MOLLY MACGREGOR ET AL (any age to play wide range: 35-70) Malcolm’s frail mom...and also an assortment of women (all working class) friends to Georgie and Estelle. Very versatile, broad range, indeterminate age character actress able to play late 30’s to nearly 70 believably.
TEDDY SLAUGHTER ET AL (30-38) Pam’s live-in boyfriend. Every bit as good looking as Jerry...but his collar is “whiter” and he has a job. Honestly cares for Pam and Nathan...which only makes Jerry want to punch him. Doubles throughout in smaller roles.
REG WILLOUGHBY ET AL (40’s/50’s) gruff union leader...plays an assortment of characters throughout including Police Seargeant, Tony Giodano, etc.
MARTY/MINISTER ET AL (40’s/50’s) unsuccessful stripper, minister at Molly’s funeral, etc...an assortment of Buffalo characters throughout
