Auditions for EXIT LAUGHING, Sunday, February 11, 2018 at 5:00pm
Please bring a headshot and resume and be prepared to do cold script readings.
PLOT SYNOPSIS:
When the biggest highlight in your life for the past 30 years has been your weekly bridge night out with the "girls," what do you do when one of your foursome inconveniently dies? If you're Connie, Leona and Millie, three southern ladies from Birmingham, you do the most daring thing you've ever done. You "borrow" the ashes from the funeral home for one last card game, and the wildest, most exciting night of your lives involves a police raid, a stripper and a whole new way of looking at all the fun you can have when you're truly living.
CASTING FOR 4 WOMEN & ONE MAN:
Rachel: (20's) a young woman who seems to have issues with life and men until bridge night opens her eyes.
Connie: (50's) the mother of Rachel who finds on this fateful bridge night that life doesn't end at 55.
