Audition for Murder Among Friends

Auditions will be held at The Village Players, 2740 Upton Avenue at 7:00 pm on Monday, September 14th and Tuesday, September 15th, 2009 with call backs on Saturday, September 19th at 2:00pm for Murder Among Friends.

Take an aging, exceedingly vain actor; his very rich wife; a double dealing, double loving agent plunk them down in an elegant New York duplex and add dialogue crackling with wit and laughs and you have the basic elements for an evening of pure, sophisticated entertainment. Angela, the wife and Ted, the agent, are lovers and plan to murder Palmer, the actor, during a contrived robbery on New Year’s Eve. But actor and agent are also lovers and have an identical plan to do in the wife. A murder occurs, but not one of the planned ones.

Murder Among Friends is written by Bob Barry and produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc. It will be directed by Jennifer Lockwood and will run November 6-21, 2009.

Needed are: Angela – a beautiful, wealthy woman married to a famous actor; 35-50, Palmer – a famous, self-absorbed Broadway actor, a legend in his own mind; 40-50, Gert – wife of a Broadway producer and New Years Eve guest; 35-50, Ted – a handsome, slick, greedy, opportunistic agent; 25-30, Jessup – a young handsome hit-man who is, in reality, an actor; 25-30ish and Marshall – a Broadway producer and friend of Angela and Palmer; 40-50.
