Though the movie is set in England , the musical takes place in the present in Buffalo , New York . It is a story about 6 “down on their luck” unemployed men and their friends and families. One of the main characters comes up with an idea to make some quick money- to do a strip tease just like the Chippendales. But can they go one step further, all the way-“the full monty”-to attract an even bigger audience? There are a number of important and poignant themes running through the story lines- the sacrifices people make for their children, the binding ties of friendship, the risks involved in seeing a wild idea through to the bitter end.  
 
“The Full Monty” auditions will be held at the playhouse on Tuesday and Wednesday May 23, 24. Sign in will be at 7:00pm. Please come prepared to sing 16 bars of music, preferably from the show. There will be no acapella singing.  Please bring sheet music; an accompanist will be provided.  Wear comfortable clothing as there will be a dancing as well as vocal and reading audition.
