Set in the little village of Anatevka, the story centers on Tevye, a poor milkman, and his five daughters. With the help of a colorful and tight-knit Jewish community, Tevye tries to protect his daughters and instill them with traditional values in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia. Rich in historical and ethnic detail, Fiddler on the Roof's universal theme of tradition cuts across barriers of race, class, nationality and religion, leaving audiences crying tears of laughter, joy and sadness.

SYNOPSIS:
Based on a true story, CALENDAR GIRLS is a heartwarming comedy about love, loss, and the boldness it takes to “bare” it all. When Annie’s husband passes away from illness, the women of the Knapeley Women’s Institute band together to raise money for a memorial in his honor. Their plan? To create a fundraising calendar – featuring themselves tastefully posing in the nude! As their daring idea becomes an unexpected sensation, friendships are tested, boundaries are pushed, and the women discover the power of friendship, laughter, and community in the face of loss.

AUDITION PREP:
Auditions will consist of cold reads from script sides provided at the audition.

Please prepare an English accent for your audition.

DISCLAIMER NUDITY:
Please be aware that the calendar shoot is the best-known aspect of the Calendar Girls’ story.

It is essential that the audience see nothing that we do not wish them to see in this scene. It will be carefully choreographed with an Intimacy Coordinator, all will be wearing appropriate body garments, and will require a great team effort from all those involved to ensure that each person’s modesty is protected by their fellow actors.

However, if you are uncomfortable about the “act” of appearing nude, please do not audition for the role of Chris, Annie, Cora, Jessie, Celia or Ruth.

We are seeking an ensemble cast of 14 actors (10 Female presenting and 4 Male presenting) for this production.

Synopsis

Evil Dead The Musical takes all the elements of the cult classic films The Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2 and combines them for one of the craziest, funniest, and bloodiest theatrical experiences of all time.

Five college students go to an abandoned cabin in the woods, and accidentally unleash an evil force that turns them all into demons. It’s all up to Ash (a housewares employee, turned demon-killing hero), and his trusty chainsaw to save the day. Blood flies. Limbs are dismembered. Demons tell bad jokes… and all to music. The songs in the show are completely off the wall as well. Titles like “All the Men in My Life Keep Getting Killed by Kandarian Demons” and “What the F**k was That?” have had audiences rolling in their seats, and screaming for more and more blood.

You don’t need to be a fan of Evil Dead to love this show. You don’t need to be a fan of horror to love this show. You don’t even need to be a fan of musicals to love this show. As long as you like having fun… this show is for you. Is it scary? No! Is it gory? No. This is a pure comedy start to finish. It has fun with the horror genre, and in doing so appeals to a wider audience than you could ever imagine. Plus it’s the only show with a “Splatter Zone” – a section of the audience that gets covered in fake blood. And with this combination of blood, jokes, cheesy effects, and really awesome musical numbers, Evil Dead The Musical is unlike any live show you’ve ever seen.

Behind the scenes of a struggling theatre company’s annual slapdash production of A Christmas Carol, rehearsals are at a standstill. Tim is no longer tiny, Scrooge wants to do the show in Spanish and their funding is on hold pending an inspection. When an impossibly bad actor is mistakenly identified as the inspector, the troupe does everything to accommodate his craziest wishes. Mistaken identities lead to side-splitting comedy as opening night draws closer and it seems only a Christmas miracle will save this production!

City Theater Company paints the town – and all that jazz – this December with CHICAGO, the Tony Award-winning musical by Kander, Ebb, and Fosse.  Tickets are available NOW at www.city-theater.org

City Theater Company (CTC), now in its 32nd season, gives them “the “old razzle-dazzle” this December with Chicago, one of the most popular American musicals of all time.

With a book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, music by John Kander, and lyrics by Ebb, CHICAGO first took the world by storm in 1975 and has endured ever since. Its iterations include an Academy Award-winning film and the current N.Y.C. production, which is the longest running American musical in Broadway history. CHICAGO is based on the play by Maurine Dallas Watkins, with a script adaptation by David Thompson, and presented here by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.

Artistic Director Kerry Kristine McElrone directs, and promises a whole lotta grit with a little bit of glam, as CTC transforms their performance home at The Black Box in The Delaware Contemporary into a speakeasy for this tale of murder, moxie, and mayhem in 1920s Chi-town.

McElrone chose CHICAGO, in part, as a response to the current times. “We are a century removed from the era of the play, but in our Roaring Twenties timeline, the power of ‘celebrity’ under the ever-changing ‘rule of law’ are remarkably similar. Times are hard and chaotic, everyone has an angle, and some of us are cashing in where they can.” says McElrone. “The media circus that surrounds every new scandal consumes the public – and ‘nowadays’ we too move on from yesterday’s news in an instant when some fresh outrage shows up.”

She continues, “There’s good reason for CHICAGO’s enduring popularity. Beneath all the glitz and fun of that other ‘20s is a laser-focused commentary on society’s response to turbulent times. These characters – the flappers and the clubmen, the lawyers and the press – are living lives of unquiet desperation in an unhinged society. In 2025, these stories resonate, and we can tell them in CTC’s trademark up-close-and-personal style.”

Dylan Geringer stars as Roxie Hart, the bored housewife-turned-murderess with wannabe chanteuse dreams. Dana Michael stars as Velma Kelly, seasoned vaudeville star and fellow accused killer.

Both Philadelphia-area actresses are long-time CTC performers, and have appeared onstage together in Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson and Bat Boy: The Musical. They are elated to be tackling these dream roles opposite one another.

Says Geringer “I was first introduced to CHICAGO as a 14-year old, when my mother and grandmother took me to see the recently released movie in theaters. I was truly blown away by it, all the more so because I went in cold without any real knowledge of the show beforehand (and because, at that age, I was at the absolute height of my musical theater geekdom!) CHICAGO will always hold a special place in my heart because of that experience, and I’m so thrilled to have a chance to be a part of it on stage 20+ years later. To be able to do so at my home base of CTC, alongside Dana, is the cherry on top.”

Michael wisecracks in character “After hanging up my fishnets long ago, I made a deal with CTC to finally return to the stage in exchange for my testimony against Dylan – and I am excited to ‘shimmy ‘til my garters break.’”

Joining Geringer and Michael is a notable who’s who of CTC fan-favorites: Tonya Baynes (Love’s Labour’s Lost, Nine), Daryan Borys (Dancing At Lughnasa, Cabaret), Jolene Cuisine (Diva Baby Does Delaware), Tommy Fisher-Klein (Xanadu, Hair), Autumn Jewel Hudson (Spring Awakening), Mary Catherine Kelley (Vanya & Sonia & Masha & Spike, Les Cages Aux Folles), and Paul McElwee (Gypsy, Assassins.) Making their CTC debuts alongside these veterans are CTC newcomer Jonathan Frazier and CTC Board Member Scott Frelick.

CHICAGO is a bucket-list show for McElrone as well. “I grew up loving CHICAGO, like every musical theater kid, and always dreamed of getting to do it at CTC. Staging our take on this classic at CTC, with this particular group of amazing actors and designers, in an era not unlike that of the show, is the cat’s pajamas.”

CAST & CREATIVE TEAM

CHICAGO stars Tonya Baynes, Daryan Borys, Jolene Cuisine, Tommy Fisher-Klein, Jonathan Frazier, Scott Frelick, Dylan Geringer, Autumn Jewel Hogan, Mary Catherine Kelley, Paul McElwee, Dana Michael, and Dionne Williford (Mamma Mia!); featured musicians are Don Brill, Robert Diton, Josh Dowiak, and Kanako Neale.

The play is a farcical black comedy revolving around the Brewster family, descended from Mayflower settlers but now composed of maniacs, many of them homicidal. A timeless hit, it premiered on Broadway at the Fulton Theatre on January 10, 1941. This highly popular play, by American playwright Joseph Kesselring, was written in 1939. It has become best known through the 1944 film adaptation starring Cary Grant and directed by Frank Capra.

Actors should prepare a 1-2 minute comic monologue. Auditions will also include cold readings from the script.

CHARACTERS (all ages are approximate):

Abby Brewster (50-75): A darling lady and the very model of Victorian charm and grace, who poisons elderly gentlemen with her sister as an act of charity. She and her sister Martha seem to be the absolute embodiment of the values and polite society of a bygone age. More dominant and a bit older than Martha, both ladies are happy, healthy, lucid, and spry. The Aunt to Teddy, Jonathan, and Mortimer.

Martha Brewster (50-75): Very sweet, but more submissive than Abby, Martha still is a strong woman. She and her sister have lived together for many, many years. Their personalities and pecking order around each other have been firmly rooted for eons. Always wears a high collar. The Aunt to Teddy, Jonathan, and Mortimer.

Mortimer Brewster (30-45): Nephew of Abby and Martha, brother to both Teddy and Jonathan Brewster. A very likable man, Mortimer is a drama critic who is in love with & engaged to Elaine Harper. A good-hearted cynic who is about to have his world turned upside down.

Teddy Brewster (40-55): Very likable, kindhearted brother to Mortimer and Jonathan, nephew of Abby and Martha Brewster, Teddy is a man who believes that he is the 26th President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt.

Jonathan Brewster (30-50): Nephew of Abby and Martha Brewster, brother to Teddy and Mortimer. Jonathan is a psychopath who has numerous murders to his credit and no scruples whatsoever. He is creepy. Jonathan is a killer that loves his business and he's got an unbelievably short temper. Dr. Einstein has changed Jonathan's face three times, currently to look like Boris Karloff.

Dr. Einstein (45-55): A German plastic surgeon, with an accent to prove it. Right hand to Jonathan, Dr. Einstein is mousey and submissive to Jonathan. Einstein should be viewed as a good guy whose life has gone bad. The audience truly has to sympathize with this guy. With somewhat of a ratty appearance, his face wears the benevolent smirk of a man who lives in a pleasant haze of alcohol. (Please do your best German accent at the audition).

Elaine Harper (25-35): An attractive girl, daughter of Rev. Dr. Harper, and Mortimer's fiancée. She is surprisingly wise in the ways of the world for a minister's daughter. She is a little bit wily, sassy, and absolutely sharp.

Featured Roles (there is a potential for doubling):

The Rev. Dr. Harper (50-70): Elaine Harper's father who is also a minister with a sense of polish, refinement, and mild-mannered sensitivity towards others. He is not in favor of Mortimer and Elaine's relationship.

Officer Brophy (25-45): The first police officer we meet in the show, Brophy is a thoroughly likable sort of fellow. Is making his rounds collecting Christmas toys for the needy.

Officer Klein (25-45): A flatfoot Brooklyn officer who makes his rounds with Officer Brophy collecting Christmas toys.

Officer O'Hara (25-45): He is the quintessential example of an Irish-American police officer, good-natured, and played big. He is on very good terms with the aunts. O'Hara is a would-be playwright and needs to plainly display the nagging, persistent drive that's kindled within him once he discovers that Mortimer is a famous dramatic critic. Well-intentioned, O'Hara really doesn't mean to come across as annoying as he does.

Lieutenant Rooney (50-60): The man in charge at the local police precinct. He has very little patience for blunder and mistakes, and needs to run a pretty tight ship. He is loud, decisive, and clearly in charge of every situation in which he finds himself.

Mr. Gibbs (55-80): An elderly gentleman who wishes to rent a room from the Brewster sisters; and nearly falls victim to the sisters' "charity". He is a little gruff, but he warms up fairly quickly upon being offered a treat he hasn't had since he was a child.

Mr. Witherspoon (40-70): The superintendent of Happy Dale Sanitarium. Very mild-mannered and kind.

“A wonderful, touching and memorable roller coaster of a theatrical experience.”
– Chicago Theatre Review ​

In this hilarious and highly original story, six teenagers from a Canadian chamber choir meet an unexpected end in a roller coaster accident. Upon awakening in limbo, they encounter the Amazing Karnak, a mechanical fortune teller who invites them to participate in a high-stakes game of life and death. Much like the different stages of grief, each character in this story is distinct and complex in their own way. However, they are all compelled to unite and collaborate to achieve their ultimate goal. This beloved musical has become a viral sensation, offering a humorous yet poignant exploration of what makes a life well-lived.

Synopsis:
WIT is a play about a highly rational English literature professor, Dr. Vivian Bearing, who is diagnosed with terminal ovarian cancer and must confront her own mortality. While undergoing experimental chemotherapy, the play uses a non-linear narrative to intersperse her past experiences as a student and teacher with her present-day struggles in the hospital. Through her illness, she re-evaluates her life and relationships, seeking emotional connection and compassion as her intellectual defenses are stripped away.

Highly experienced at treating cancer patients. Less educated than the others at this
university hospital’s cancer center.

He is always right.

CALENDAR GIRLS is a hilariously heartfelt celebration of friendship, courage, and cheeky defiance. When a group of Yorkshire women hatch a bold plan to raise money for charity—by posing nude for a calendar—they spark a media storm and inspire a movement. Based on a true story, this witty and warm play balances laughter with poignant moments, as ordinary women do something extraordinary. It’s a story about breaking convention, baring your soul (and a little more), and finding strength in community. Charming, empowering, and full of surprises—this is one show that will leave you smiling long after the curtain falls.
