THE RAINMAKER - The Sherman Playhouse Non Equity Auditions

The Sherman Playhouse Holds Casting Call for

THE RAINMAKER

April 28 & 29, 2014

The Sherman Playhouse is seeking a cast of 6 men and 1 woman (ages 18 to 65) for its summer production of the classic American drama, THE RAINMAKER, by N. Richard Nash.

THE RAINMAKER follows a girl whose father and two brothers are worried as much about her becoming an old maid as they are about their dying cattle due to a paralyzing drought in the West. The brothers try every possible scheme to marry her off, but without success. Suddenly, from out of nowhere, appears a character with a mellifluous tongue and the most grandiose notions a man could imagine. He claims to be a rainmaker. The rainmaker turns his magic on the girl and persuades her that she has a very real beauty of her own and she believes it. Just as her father believes that the fellow can actually bring rain. Rain does come, and so does love.

THE RAINMAKER is under the direction of Martin Rosato of New Milford.

Auditions are Monday and Tuesday, April 28 and 29, from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm at The Sherman Playhouse, 5 Route 39 North (next to the fire station), in Sherman, CT.

Auditions will consist of reading from the script. All roles are available and both professionals and amateurs are welcome. No appointments are necessary. For more details on the auditions, visit:
