Audition call for Snapshots

Princess Theatre is pleased and proud to announce the world premiere

of Snapshots, written by long-time Prosser resident SueEllen Davis. SueEllen will direct her one-act play and will conduct auditions for
the 11 roles in mid-April.


Of her play, SueEllen says, “In short vignettes, the audience will see communication working and not working. The play has varied settings, including a funeral home, a job fair, and a first date. The ‘snapshots’

have a bit of comedy, a bit of drama, and a lot of real life.”
Auditions will be Sunday and Monday, April 16 and 17 in The Green Room; doors will open at 6 PM. They will include cold readings from the script and acting exercises. Scripts are available until April 10 for a
three-day checkout, on a first-come basis, from Mid-Columbia Libraries Prosser Branch, 902 7th Street.

 

The characters are:

  • Mr. Asher: 50+, big bombastic, and used to getting what he wants when he wants

  • Ms. Flint: 30s-40s, plain-ish, no nonsense

  • Casey Fortus: 20-30, pretty, desperately looking for a job

  • Kate: 20-40, pretty and wholesome looking

  • Mr. Largesse: Think of him as a used car salesman stereotype, who happens to be in the coffin business

  • Man: 30-40, thinks he’s a nice guy, everybody’s friend

  • Emily Meadows: 70+, frail; walks with help of a cane or walker

  • Mick: 20-40, Abercrombie meets REI, sincere

  • Harry Johnson: If Largesse had a sleazier cousin, this would be him

  • Waiter/Roommate: waiter - bit of a snob, but efficient; roommate - casual, loyal, upbeat; male or female

  • Woman: 30-40, tightly strung and slightly paranoid.

 

Rehearsals will be Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings, with an occasional Wednesday or weekend if needed. Performances will be one weekend only: June 2 and 3, at 7:30 PM.


SueEllen Davis has been involved in theater since high school, when she danced in The Music Man. After raising a family, she returned to theater. Her credits include acting in Dixie Swim Club and Kitchen Witches, directing Last of the Red Hot Lovers and Sirens, and making props for Altar Egos. Snapshots is her first foray into writing drama.
