H.M.S. Pinafore

Before Gilbert and Sullivan awed the world with their swashbuckling masterpiece The Pirates of Penzance, they wrought a boisterous tale of sea-faring love that would inspire musical tradition for generations known as H.M.S.

About the Show: 
Bingo is a splashy, zippy, outrageously funny new musical. Come meet Vern, Honey and Patsy: three pals that have driven through a terrible storm in the name of their weekly obsession. In between the number calling, strange rituals and fierce competitions, love blossoms and long lost friend reunite! Directed and choreographed by Jim Christian. 

Audition Information:
Auditions will be held at the Grand Theatre Alumni room, from 10:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M., 1575 South State Street. All roles are open. Actors should be prepared to sing 16-32 bars of a musical theatre piece and to read from the script. All actors should also bring a current headshot and resume. All conflicts need to be made known at time of audition. 

Performance Dates: 
May 11th -22nd at 7:30pm
Matinee on May 15th & 22nd at 2:00 pm

Characters: 
VERN: Matriarch of the group. Funny, robust, stubborn and crusty, but with a good heart buried under her gruff exterior.
PATSY: Somewhat mousey, neurotic, and obsessively superstitious, yet underneath her anxious exterior lies a rock star who can let it rip!
HONEY: Leggy, beautiful, but a little past her prime. She's an extremely loveable sex kitten if not the brightest of bulbs.
SAM/FRANK: Sam is the Bingo caller - tall, rugged, and handsome. He loves his job and takes his calling very seriously - the only thing that can distract him is Honey - the woman of his dreams. In flashbacks, He doubles as FRANK a Bingo employee.
MINNIE: Friendly bingo hall manager - she's everyone's favorite, cute, cuddly grandma. Although this woman could be the oldest in the group, she's still spry and quick on her feet. She must be extremely comfortable interacting and improvising with the audience and have a good, warm energy.
BERNICE BOODALAY: Super mom, genuinely sweet and cheerful. She's the peacemaker and pie baker, and spreads sunshine wherever she goes. Maybe a little bit passive aggressive with her friends.
ALISON BOODALAY: Bernice's daughter - fresh faced, comedic, driven, passionate, optimistic, perky and quirky. She is a young character woman in an ingénue's body.
