The inspiration for this story comes from a conversation he had with his screenwriter son days before he died in 1989. \nCAST LIST: \n\nCarl Da Silva (MURRAY)\nSonja Inge (TISHA)\nSarah Hoeven (MILDRED)\nSean Fisher (MARTY)\nAnthony Pierre Christopher (DOCTOR\, ANNOUNCER\, ANGRY WORKERS)\n\nLINK TO ONLINE DIGITAL PROGRAM FOR THE READINGS \n  \nTHE CLIPPER\nNon-Local Winner of the LBP New Works Festival 2020 \n \nBy Maryanne Melloan Woods \nDirected by Austin James \nA baby shower\, some wine and a garden of truths forces Joyce to decide if she will engage in her family or shrink from life altogether.

Disguised as a nun\, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight Mother Superior. Using her unique disco moves and singing talent to inspire the choir\, Deloris breathes new life into the church and community but\, in doing so\, blows her cover. Soon\, the gang is giving chase\, only to find them up against Deloris and the power of her newly found sisterhood. \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nNOTE: All roles are singing roles. \nMost roles also require dancing/moving well. \nAll ethnicities are strongly encouraged to audition.  All roles are open to any ethnicity unless indicated in the character description. \nDeloris Van Cartier (F – 25-35\, Ethnicity: African American\, Vocal Range: E3-F#5) An aspiring performer\, trying to find both fame and a place in the world. When forced to hide in a convent\, she initially refuses to embrace her lifestyle but learns to embrace it when she works with the choir. Loud-mouthed\, and sassy\, but ultimately caring. \nMother Superior (F – 50-70\, All Ethnicities\, Vocal Range: D3-E5) The head of the convent\, sarcastic and a bit stiff. Extremely protective about keeping her sisters away from the outside world\, which puts her in direct opposition to Deloris and her musical teachings. \nSister Mary Robert (F – 16-25\, All Ethnicities\, Vocal Range: F#3-A5) A postulant\, abandoned as a baby and raised at the convent. Shy and soft-spoken but singing with Deloris lets her find her voice. Her wallflower lifestyle has made her live a shell of a life. \nSister Mary Patrick (F – 35-50\, All Ethnicities) A nun of the convent. Consistently perky\, enthusiastic\, and easily excitable. \nSister Mary Lazarus (F – 50-70\, All Ethnicities\, Vocal Range: F3-B4) A nun of the convent and the head of the choir. Rather deadpan and the least welcoming of any of the nuns\, but she gets caught up in Deloris’s soul music. \nMonsignor O’Hara (M – 45-60\, All Ethnicities\, Vocal Range: G4-E3) One of the heads of the convent. Constantly concerned with financial matters\, though soul music surprisingly puts him in a different mood. Speaks with the soulful bass-baritone of Barry White or a late night R&B radio station DJ. \nCurtis (M – 30-40\, Ethnicity: African American\, Vocal Range: A2-Ab4) A Club owner\, notorious gangster\, and Deloris’s boyfriend. Cocky and controlling\, always on the verge of violence. \nEddie Souther (M – 25-35\,  Ethnicity: African American\, Vocal Range: Ab2-B4) The desk chief at the Philadelphia police station and a high school classmate of Deloris who helps get her into hiding. Faces a lot of nerves when under pressure\, causing him to sweat profusely. He still yearns for Deloris after all these years\, and dreams of being her hero. \nTJ (M – 16-30\, Ethnicity: African American\, Vocal Range: Db3-Eb5) Curtis’s nephew and one of his thugs. Deft and cognizant of the fact\, constantly in a state of ignorant bliss. \nJoey (M – 30-40\, All Ethnicities\, Vocal Range: Bb2-Eb5) One of Curtis’s thugs. Believes himself to be quite the ladies man. \nPablo (M – 25-40\, Ethnicity: Latinx\, Vocal Range: C4-F5) One of Curtis’s thugs. A natural follower\, constantly speaks Spanish. \nSister Mary Martin-of-tours (F– 40-60\, All Ethnicities) A Nun of the convent. Clearly in her own world\, but has her moments of surprising clarity. \nSister Mary Theresa (F– 60-70\, All Ethnicities) A nun of the convent\, the oldest of the group. Decrepit at first glance but secretly packs a punch. \nMichelle (F– 20-30\, All Ethnicities\, Vocal Range: Bb3-F5) One of Deloris’s back-up singers. Lippy and always quick with a retort. \nTina (F– 20-30\, All Ethnicities\, Vocal Range: Ab3-F5) One of Deloris’s back-up singers. A little thick and naïve. \nErnie (M – 25-35\, All Ethnicities) One of Curtis’s thugs. Initially thought to be a mindless yes-man\, he turns out to be an undercover police informant. \nEnsemble (All Ages\, All Ethnicities) Nuns; Bar Denizens (Bar Patron\, Waitress\, Pool Player\, Drag Queen); Homeless People; Fantasy Dancers; Alter Boys URL:https://lbplayhouse.org/event/auditions-sister-act-the-musical/ CATEGORIES:Auditions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lbplayhouse.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Sister-Act-Audition-Banner-2.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20210911T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20211009T230000 DTSTAMP:20260404T150647 CREATED:20190709T212434Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211007T192106Z UID:4839-1631390400-1633820400@lbplayhouse.org SUMMARY:NOISES OFF DESCRIPTION:For those who love a good British farce\, imagine the joy of being able to watch the mayhem going on behind the scenes.  Imagine no longer as we bring you “backstage” during the rehearsals and performances of a comedy that goes hilariously wrong over its months of production.  As this troupe of actors presents an awful flop called Nothing On\, doors slam\, cues are missed\, and lives and careers dangle in the balance during what has been called “the funniest farce ever written.”  Come laugh your sardines off as you experience possibly the most horrendously funny performance ever presented. \n\nCAST LIST:\n\nAndrea Stradling (DOTTY OTLEY)\nEric Schiffer (LLOYD DALLAS)\nJohn Vann (GARRY LEJEUNE)\nAmara Phelps (BROOKE ASHTON)\nLyndsay Palmer (POPPY NORTON-TAYLOR)\nTravis Wade (FREDERICK FELLOWES)\nAdanna Kenlow (BELINDA BLAIR)\nPJ Cimacio (TIM ALLGOOD)\nLewis P.
