AUDITION - Markham Little Theatre

We have cast three of the roles, but are still seeking two characters:

Janine

Age:  30-35

A server at the diner.  "Girl next door" look -- a natural beauty.

Down to earth, but has a backbone.  This lady is blunt, not shy.

Sean

Age:  35 - 40

The visiting doctor

Tall, handsome but humble, a bit rugged

Contact the director, Lisa Lamothe, in order to request an audition.  A resumé and headshot are preferred.

You will be contacted with an audition time slot, along with pages from the script ("sides") with which to prepare.  You do not need to memorize the sides, but some consideration and rehearsal re: delivery is expected.

There’s no such thing as a secret in Stewiacke. Not when the gossips meet for coffee every day at the local diner. Vi, Rita, Mary Ellen, and Janine are all as close as can be, and they know everybody’s business. But when Sean, a heartbroken doctor, moves in to take a temporary job at the clinic, he tips the Maritime town that’s famous for being halfway between the North Pole and the equator off its axis. While Sean decides to pursue Janine, it only brings her closer together with her friends, who each have their own messy love lives. Vi just turned down her boyfriend’s proposal, Mary Ellen is tired of doing everything for her husband and sons, Rita just wants to find a date, and Janine already lives with a man she loves a “little bit. ” Can everyone find what they’re looking for in Stewiacke? And what happens when someone finds out a secret that managed to be kept hidden?
