Curtain Call Theatre (Latham, NY) is holding additional auditions for the
part of WILSON (M; 20s-30s) in Harvey by Mary Chase. Production Dates: April
9 - May 8.
Wilson is an orderly at Chumley's Rest, the sanitarium in the play. He's a
little rough on the outside but he's a good guy at heart. Wilson and Myrtle
Mae (Elwood's niece) end up being attracted to one another. The ideal actor
for this role will have a good sense of comic timing and will have good
chemistry on stage with the actress playing Myrtle Mae.
Information about the production:
* Harvey is a Pulitzer Prize winning comedy set in the 1940s. The play
tells the story of Elwood P. Dowd, an affable yet eccentric man who is kind
to everyone he meets. Of course, he also introduces everyone to his
imaginary friend, Harvey, a six-and-a-half foot rabbit. After embarrassing
his sister, Veta, at a high society function by "sharing" Harvey with the
socialites, Veta tries to have Elwood committed to a sanatorium. In a comic
turn of events, Veta is the one who is committed - if only temporarily! As
the rest of the plot unfolds, Elwood's kindness and generous heart begin to
overpower everyone's fears about his imaginary - and lovable - friend,
Harvey.
* Rehearsals will begin in mid-February and will typically be on
Sun-Wed evenings (although other days and times are possible).
* The production runs Thursdays through Sundays, April 9 through May
8.
* Curtain Call Theatre is located at 210 Old Loudon Road, Latham, NY
