🎭 AUDITIONS:

Something Fishy

By Marcia Kash & Douglas E. Hughes

TheatreFor is excited to announce auditions for the upcoming production of
Something Fishy, a timely political farce filled with disguises, chaos, and comedy.

ABOUT THE SHOW

Presidential candidate Raymond Bream returns to his hometown of Port Pilchard to make a major announcement—one that could win him the election. Meanwhile, the incumbent President Weever has dispatched a pair of henchmen to town to stop Bream from delivering his speech—by any means necessary.

The showdown unfolds on the stage of the local community center, where an amateur theatre troupe is preparing to open their latest production, The Vicar’s Knickers. As politics collides with farce, everyone is forced into disguises and multiple roles, and suddenly no one is who they appear to be.

Will Bream reach the podium, or will the president’s hatchet men win the day?

Note: In this production, each actor will play multiple characters.

Director: Mike Cote
