HTC Holds AUDITIONS for “An Act of the Imagination”
Hampton Theatre Company will hold open auditions for Bernard Slade’s mystery “An Act of the Imagination” on Sunday, January 15 and Monday, January 16 from 6-8 pm at the Quogue Community Hall, 125 Jessup Avenue, Quogue.
This masterful and intricately plotted mystery, set in the outskirts of 1960s London, contains roles for three men and four women. They are: ARTHUR PUTNAM (mid-50s-60s), an unromantic-looking, almost homely dreamer, an appealingly eccentric author whose painful shyness is camouflaged by a public personality of bluff congeniality; JULIA PUTNAM (40s), Arthur's strikingly beautiful and much younger wife, warm, sophisticated, graceful and charming; SIMON PUTNAM (20s-30s), Arthur's attractive, charming and impetuous son; DETECTIVE SERGEANT FRED BURCHITT (50s), a friendly cop and pal of Arthur's;
HOLLY ADAMS (mid - late 20s), a pretty, enthusiastic and bright young editor; BRENDA SIMMONS (late 20s-30s), a vaguely bohemian, slightly unkempt, nervous and erratic young woman with a slight Welsh accent; BROOKE CARMICHAEL (30s), classically beautiful woman with an unforced elegance and charm.
Rehearsals for “An Act of the Imagination” will begin in early February with performances running from March 23 through April 9, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings and Saturday and Sunday afternoons at the Quogue Community Hall. Edward Brennan directs. For more information, please contact Ed at
