The Scene for April 23, 2010

After a rainy start to the week, April Showers have let up a little, and one might think that a few plays sprung up as a result.  Or is my flower metaphor mixed with the way mushrooms appear?  Anyway, it's a busy week on the Theatre Scene.  Don't tell my grandmother I'm going to see Going to See The Elephant.  She's played the role of "Ma" twice, (both times at Actors' Rep) and I didn't tell her about the auditions.  She'll be mad - it's her favorite role, and it suits her. She may be 92, but as she'll tell you, "I might be twice your age, but I can still spit in your eye!"  You can tell her I'm seeing Stop Kiss, but don't mention who has to stop the kissing, or I'll never hear the end of it.


Registration info is up at the Florida Professional Theatres Association website.  This year's FPTA mass auditions are scheduled for May 23-24 at the Riverside Theatre in Vero Beach.  Registration forms and workshop schedules are available HERE.  This is a great chance to be seen by theatres across the entire state, and it's an excellent networking opportunity.
