Little Theatre holds auditions
Woy Woy Little Theatre will hold auditions on February 24 and 26, for its upcoming play season.
Publicity officer Ms Patrice Horne said several parts for males and females aged between 18 and 50 years of age were being offered.
"If you think you have what it takes and would like to take part, come along and have a go," Ms Horne said.
"On offer is Stella By Starlight, a full length play written by Bernard Farrell.
"The play explores wry and compassionate look at a couple coming to terms with shattered dreams, the internet and life in the Irish Hills.
"This will be performed from July 31 to August 16.
"Plus, in addition to our usual program, we have added a shorter season of one act plays in the style of shoestring theatre."
Ms Horne said the new addition to the theatre program will give local actors plenty to do this year.
"Mother Figure written by Alan Ayckbourn shows what happens when a mother spends too much time at home with the kids," Ms Horne said.
"A Cluttered Nest, written by local children's author Joan Dalgleish, is a short play that follows a middle aged couple enjoying life as empty nesters', until a late night phone call changes everything.
"Finally, Tom Stoppard's The Real Inspector Hound where a couple of theatre critics find themselves caught up in the action of the 'whodunit' play they are watching.
"All of these plays are comedies, designed to give the people of the Peninsula something to laugh about in these tough economic times."
