The Actors Theater of Orcas Island announces auditions for the upcoming play “Hotbed Hotel” by Michael Parker. “Hotbed Hotel” is a great comic farce with a cast of 5 women and 4 men in a wide range of ages. Rehearsals will begin in early December with seven performances between February 15 and March 3.
Roles being cast: Hopkins: Hotel handyman, a natural comic, usually tipsy, occasionally drunk; Terri: Wife of the hotel manager, smart, efficient, competent yet tender and patient; Brian: Hotel manager, kind, helpful and naive; Ponsenby: British military officer, eccentric with a sparkling dry wit and sense of humor. Ponsenby also plays Abdul El Hajj. Maureen: Hotel maid, young, full of energy, not a brain in her head; Sam Lewis: Businessman, guest at the hotel, loud and brash; Ashley: Sam’s girlfriend, gorgeous, kind and affectionate; Hayley: Called the barracuda for reasons that will become obvious; Dorothy: Sam’s wife, severe, matronly, self-opinionated.
Auditions will be held at the Grange on Sunday, November 25 at 2 p.m. and Monday, November 26 at 7 p.m. A copy of the script is available at the counter at the Library. For more information contact Doug Bechtel, the director at 317-5601.
