SSCC Theatre is pleased to announce their upcoming auditions for the summer production of Tom Dudzick’s Over the Tavern.

In that most idealized period of 20th-century America, the Eisenhower years of the 1950s, the Pazinski family has a lot going on in their cramped Buffalo apartment. The youngest of the bunch, 12-year-old Rudy, is a smart, wise-cracking kid who’s starting to question family values and the Roman Catholic Church. When Rudy goes up against the ruler-wielding Sister Clarissa and announces that instead of being confirmed he’d rather shop around for a more “fun” religion, all hell breaks loose. A warm and hilarious look at family, growing up, and God.

Auditions, open to community members and students, will be held on Friday, May 24 at 6:30 p.m. in The Edward K. Daniels Auditorium at the Central Campus of Southern State Community College, in Hillsboro, OH. Those interested in auditioning should prepare and memorize a one to two minute monologue, preferably comedic. Short monologues from Over the Tavern are available online here, but their use is not required for the audition. If you’re interested in auditioning, but unavailable to attend the audition date, please contact Rainee Angles (rangles@sscc.edu) to schedule an alternate audition date prior to May 24.

Over the Tavern is directed by Rainee Angles and will be performed July 26 – 28, 2013. For more information about Over the Tavern, available roles, and a rehearsal schedule, please visit the audition page here.
