Auditions at the Lofte Theatre
The Lofte Community Theatre near Manley will be holding auditions for its first season production, "Over The Tavern" on April 6 and 7 at 7pm . The play is set in the 1950s and follows an all-American family living in a cramped Buffalo apartment. The youngest boy in the family is a wise-cracking kid who's starting to question his family's Roman Catholic values and shocks his family by announcing that he'd like to shop around for a more "fun" religion.
Parts are available for three adults (two women and one man) ages 35-80 and 4 youths (three male and one female)ages 10-20. Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Performance dates run from May 29-June 14.
Any questions in regards to the auditions or production may be emailed to Kevin Colbert at LofteDirector@Lofte.com. Other information about the theater, including driving directions, may be found on its website, www.Lofte.com. Those interested may also call the box office at (402) 234-2553.
