CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF
CALL FOR PRODUCER

 

The Delta Xi cast of Alpha Psi Omega is seeking a Producer for our fall
show, Tennessee William's Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.  Show dates are September
7th, 8th, 14th and 15th at the RPI Playhouse, Troy, NY.  Auditions will take
place in June, with rehearsals starting in July.  The Producer position is
volunteer and unpaid.

 

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is the story of a Southern family in crisis, focusing
on the turbulent relationship of a wife and husband, Maggie "The Cat" and
Brick Pollitt, and their interaction with Brick's family over the course of
one evening gathering at the family estate in Mississippi, ostensibly to
celebrate the birthday of patriarch and tycoon "Big Daddy" Pollitt. Maggie,
through wit and beauty, has escaped a childhood of desperate poverty to
marry into the wealthy Pollitt family, but finds herself suffering in an
unfulfilling marriage. Brick, an aging football hero, has neglected his wife
and further infuriates her by ignoring his brother's attempts to gain
control of the family fortune. Brick's indifference, and his nearly
continuous drinking, date back to the recent suicide of his friend Skipper.
Big Daddy is unaware that he has cancer and will not live to see another
birthday; his doctors and his family have conspired to keep this information
from him and his wife. ! His relatives are in attendance and attempt to
present themselves in the best possible light, hoping to receive the
definitive share of Big Daddy's enormous wealth. (Source: Wikipedia)

 

Anyone interested in producing is asked to e-mail schrom at rpi.edu and
reichj at alum.rpi.edu by June 1st.  Please include prior experience if
possible. Please consider applying even if you do not have previous
experience as a Producer.
