The Unexpected Guest
By: Agatha Christie, Director: Russell Treyz.
1st Rehearsal: September 11, Runs: October 2 - 21

Seeking all roles:

Women:
LAURA WARWICK (about 30) : An attractive leading lady, vulnerable and appealing, but with an inner strength

MISS BENNETT also called BENNY (about 50): Grey-haired, she is alert, and brisk ex-hospital nurse now in private service to the Warwick’s. She enjoys poking about in other people’s business.

MRS WARWICK (Older woman, 55+): Although leaning upon stick, she is quite alert, opinionated, and is obviously a strong personality and commanding presence. Mother of Jan Warwick, and his 30 year old brother Richard who is found dead at the beginning of the play...


Men:

MICHAEL STARKWEDDER (mid-30s): An active, tough looking man, he has an out-of-door look about him. He is not very polished, but a shrewd thinker as well as a man of action.

JULIAN FARRAR (mid-30s): He is a handsome leading man with a soldierly aspect.

JAN WARWICK (about 19): Younger half-brother to Richard, he has a strange mixture of naive innocence and a sly, somewhat paranoid behavior.

HENRY ANGELL (late 40s): A nurse attendant and valet to the recently deceased Richard Warwick, he has a correct manner, but a shifty eye.

SERGEANT CADWALLADER (20s): A Youngish man of a Welsh and poetical type, he is outgoing and eager.

INSPECTOR THOMAS (middle aged): An experienced inspector, he is rather poker-faced and dryly sarcastic.




I HATE HAMLET
By: Paul Rudnick
Director: Russ Treyz
1st Rehearsal: January 15, Runs: Feb. 5 - Feb. 24, 2013

Seeking all roles:

Men:

Andrew Rally: Late 20's early 30's. Handsome and charming, possessing the polished ease of a television star. Andrew could easily glide through life, wafting on a cloud of good looks and affability. He is not without ego, however; he is more accustomed to being the center of attention

John Barrymore: male 50's 60's. He is phenomenally sexual and dashing. He is the very image of a sly, romantic hero.

Gary Peter Lefkowitz: 30's. He personifies LA shaggy-chic. He wears extremely expensive casual clothing. Gary should be played as an extremely happy, overgrown child, an oddly appealing creature of pure appetite. Reality is of very little consequence to Gary; the deal everything. Writer, producer, director.


Women:

Dierdre McDavey: Andrew's Girlfriend, 29 years old, but appears much younger. She is the breathless soul of romantic enthusiasm. She is always on the verge of a swoon; to Deirdre, life is a miracle a minute. Deirdre is irresistibly appealing, a Valley girl imagining herself a Bronte heroine.

Lillian Troy: 65+, Lillian is Andrew's Agent. She is a striking woman. Lillian speaks with a regal German accent and has a no- nonsense manner, combined with a delight at any sort of high jinks.

Felicia Dantine: 30's Imposing, glamorous, fashion conscious woman. She is a real estate agent, with an almost carnal passion for Manhattan apartments. She speaks in a hoarse, buoyant voice, with a hint of Queens Nasality, a jubilant New York honk.
