SQUABBLES - Independence Community Theater Non Equity Auditions

Squabbles

Squabbles will be holding audtions March 4th & 5th at 7:30pm.

This hilarious play pits a father-in-law against a mother in a comedic succession of squabbles. Jerry Sloan is a successful writer of advertising jingles married to an equally successful lawyer. Living with the happy couple is the not so happy Abe Dreyfus, Jerry’s curmudgeon of father-in-law. Abe is funny guy to the audience, not to Jerry. The situation is exacerbated when Jerry’s mother, Mildred, losses her house in a fire and needs a place to stay. Abe and Mildred can’t stand each other. This play is one hilarious confrontation after another until the heart-warming finale in which the oldsters discover that, really, each is not so bad.

Rehearsal will begin March 18th and will generally run Sunday – Thursday from 7 to 9, depending on actor’s availability.
