FIVE WOMEN WEARING THE SAME DRESS - Encore Players
Encore Players Auditions at KVPAC
Auditions for Five Women Wearing the Same Dress
By Alan Ball

Directed by Grace Glass

Show Synopsis:
The play is a comedy set at the home of the bride in Knoxville, Tennessee during the newly married couple's overdone wedding reception. The five bridesmaids have found refuge in the room of Meredith, the sister of the bride. The women come to realize, among other things, that they, despite their differences, have more in common with each other than any of them do with the bride.
All (6) parts are open:
Seeking 5 Female actors, ages 20 to mid 30's
Seeking 1 Male actor, age 20 to mid 30's
  • Meredith Marlowe: The bride's nosy, pot-smoking sister who is very sarcastic and much annoyed with the whole fiasco downstairs. Sporting an outwardly tough attitude, she has a lot of hurt and insecurity to hide.
  • Georgeanne Darby: The bride's "ugly sidekick" in middle school. Accepted the invite to be a bridesmaid even though her relationship with the bride is strained because the bride's boyfriend once knocked Georgeanne up.
  • Trisha: One of the bride's former friends with a supposed bad reputation. She's been with a lot of guys, but not any that measure up.
  • Frances: The very naive and religious cousin of the bride.
  • Mindy McClure: The groom's clumsy, outspoken lesbian sister.
  • Tripp Davenport (Griffen Lyle Davenport the third): An usher who falls for Trisha. The only male in the show
