Hang onto your hats and get ready for another Lake County Theatre Company production. Auditions are scheduled for 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday, May 30, at Weaver Auditorium in the Lower Lake School House in Lower Lake. To accomodate both sides of the lake, auditions are also scheduled for 7 to 9 p.m. Monday, June 1, at the Kelseville Methodist Church accross from the Saw Shop in Kelseyville.
Performances of “Southern Hospitality,” written by Jesse Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten, are scheduled for early September so rehearsals will be “summer fun.” This play is a side-splitting comedy featuring the Futrelle sisters and other whacky citzens of Fayro, Texas. Does any of this sound familiar? Well, it might. Last Christmas time, the Futrelle sisters blessed us with “Christmas Belles” and it was a toss-up as to whether the cast had more fun or the audiences.
This production features much of the same type of mayhem only more. How do you convince a a salsa-making company to re-locate to a dying town? Stage a celebration for the company rep, of course! Throw in a gambling preacher, a reluctant groom and “the meanest woman in 12 counties” and you have a great recipe for laughs.
This play will require five men and eight women of assorted ages, 20 to 70. Experience is not required but a good sense of humor will really help. See you at auditions. For more information, call 279-2595.
