Auditions!

The Legend of Georgia McBride

Funhouse Lounge is excited to announce auditions for its upcoming play “The Legend of Georgia McBride”, by Matthew Lopez.

Description of the show:
He’s young, he’s broke, his landlord’s knocking at the door, and he’s just found out his wife is going to have a baby. To make matters even more desperate, Casey is struggling with his gig as an Elvis impersonator in a run-down, small-town Florida bar. When the bar owner brings in a B-level drag show to replace his act, Casey finds that he has a whole lot to learn about show business—and himself.

Roles we are seeking to cast :
Casey (20s, white), an Elvis impersonator who works at Cleo’s Bar
Jo (20s, African American), Casey’s wife, who’s just learned she’s pregnant
Eddie (50s/60s), the owner of Cleo’s bar
Rexy (20s/30s), a not-so-elegant drag queen named Miss Anorexia Nervosa
Jason (20s/30s), Casey’s lifelong friend

Auditions will be held Saturday March 19th, from 12 noon to 2 PM., and Monday, March 21st, 630 to 8pm.
Please have ready both a dramatic and a comedic monologue (max 2 minutes each).
