Auditions for Lillian Hellman's THE LITTLE FOXES, directed by Tony Patrizi, will be held on Sunday and Monday, August 24 & 25 at 7 pm at the Footlighters Playhouse, 808 Pomona Rd in Cinnaminson.
Auditions will consist of readings from the script. The director is seeking a diverse cast of male and female actors between ages 17 and 60. All roles are open.
PLEASE NOTE: the cast calls for two African-American actors who are sensitive to the requirements of presenting a play set in the Deep South at the beginning of the 20th century.
CHARACTERS (ages are only suggestions):
Addie (40-55): African-American woman, conscience of the play; smart, speaks her mind, sees and knows all.
Cal (30-50): middle-aged African-American man; tries to reason things out; follows Addie’s directions.
Birdie Hubbard (35-50): pretty, well-bred but faded southern lady; nervous, timid, sad, excitable, beaten-down.
Oscar Hubbard (40-50): sour, mean-spirited and jealous; always feeling cheated out of life.
Leo Hubbard (20): “a weak kind of good looks”; not too bright, but sneaky; tries to connive a way out of trouble.
Regina Hubbard Giddens (40): smart, handsome woman not content with her life; she wants it all.
William Marshall (45): pleasant, self-possessed business man.
Benjamin Hubbard (55): jovial but cunning, patient – will wait to get his way; never angry - but don’t cross him.
Alexandra Giddens (17): pretty, delicate young lady; sheltered, but starting to question life.
Horace Giddens(45-50): once attractive, but now ill; intelligent, soft-spoken, self-aware.
Performance Dates:
November 7, 8, 14, 15, 21 and 22 at 8 pm
November 9 and 16 at 2 pm
