Electric City Playhouse Hosts Auditions For SOUTHERN COMFORT 3/27, 3/28

By:

Cold reading auditions will be held at the Electric City Playhouse for Southern Comforts, a play about how some people need continuous change in order to feel vital and alive - others are terrified of unsettling the peace that they have established.

Two-time O'Neill Playwright's Conference participant Kathleen Clark uses her words to detail this tour-de-force journey of a widow and widower who meet later in life and find a way into each other's hearts. Southern Comforts is a beautiful exploration of the intimate workings of all relationships.

The play is set in a sprawling New Jersey Victorian, with a taciturn Yankee widower (Gus Klingman, in his seventies) and a vivacious grandmother from Tennessee (Amanda Cross, in her seventies) find what they least expected - a second chance at love. Their funny, awkward, and enchanting romance is filled with sweet surprise and unpredictable tribulation. Told with warmth and perceptive humor, this off-Broadway success is an affecting, late-in-life journey of compromise and rejuvenation, of personal risk and the rewards of change.

The parts of both Amanda and Gus are available and auditions will be held at the Electric City Playhouse March 27th and 28th at 7PM. Please call (864) 224-4248 or ecplayhouse.com for details.
