HAMPTON THEATRE COMPANY HOLDS AUDITIONS FOR “HOW THE OTHER HALF LOVES”
The Hampton Theatre Company will hold open auditions for “How The
Other Half Loves," Alan Ayckbourn's hilarious comedy about an
extra-marital dalliance that leads to a cascade of confusion.
Auditions are Sunday and Monday, March 24 and 25, from 6-8 p.m. at the
Quogue Community Hall on Jessup Avenue in Quogue. Both union and
non-union actors are invited to attend.
HTC is seeking actors for the roles of: BOB PHILLIPS (30s), an office
Romeo fond of the drink and tormenting his wife; TERESA PHILLIPS
(early 30s), Bob's intense, stressed and absent-minded wife; WILLIAM
DETWEILER (30s), an eager to please and rather boring little
accountant; and MARY DETWEILER (early 30s), William's very shy and
ill-at-ease wife. (The two older roles have been cast.) "How The Other
Half Loves" is Ayckbourn's only play adapted for the American stage,
so no British accents are needed.
Rehearsals for “How The Other Half Loves" begin in mid-April, with
performances running from May 23 through June 9, on Thursday, Friday
and Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons, at the Quogue Community
Hall. Diana Marbury directs.
Readings will be from the script. No monologue or appointment is
necessary. For more information, contact

attend the scheduled audition times, but who would like to read,
should contact the company and an alternate time will be arranged if
possible. Local housing is available for out-of-town actors. Special
Appearance contract for Equity actors, if applicable.
