SANTA PAULA THEATER CENTER PRESENTS AUDITIONS FOR
THE COTTAGE
BY SANDY RUSTIN.
Santa Paula Theater Center announces auditions Sunday, February 9th, 11 AM - 1 PM, Monday, February 10th, 7 PM - 9 PM, and callbacks Tuesday, February 11th, 7 PM - 9 PM for their second Main Stage show of Season 2025. Auditions will be held at The Santa Paula Center. 125 S. Seventh Street, Santa Paula, CA 93060. Phone # 805-525-4645.
www.santapaulatheatercenter.org.
THE COTTAGE will play from April 11th - May 11th, 2025 with performances on Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:00 PM and Sunday Matinees at 2:30 PM. No appointments are necessary, cold readings from the script. This is a non-equity production. THERE IS NO PAY. Kimberly Demmary directs and inquiries about auditions and plays may be directed
to her at [email protected]. The true meaning of fate, identity, and marriage is called into question as a surprising, hilarious web of secrets unravels in this ridiculous - potentially murderous - uncharacteristically feminist, 1923 British tale of sex, betrayal, and oh yes, love. With a tip of the hat to Noël Coward and sex comedies of the past, THE COTTAGE offers endless laughs, hilarious twists, daring physical comedy, and a happy ending for lovers everywhere
“What could be better than a comedy of manners in the style of Oscar Wilde, inspired by the works of Noël Coward, heightened to riotous farce with a modern feminist twist… This parody of romantic comedies is deliciously served with lust and infidelity… Rustin’s dialogue and plot twists are refreshing. The production doesn’t take itself seriously and
twits the preposterousness of romance, sex, infidelity, and marriage with a soupçon of goodwill.” —Theatre Pizzazz
SPTC seeks a diverse group of performers including, but not limited to gender identities, body types, ages, abilities, sexual orientation, ethnic and racial backgrounds. All ethnicities are welcome; no roles have specific needs. We are open to actors of all gender identities. All roles require a British accent. All role requires moments of physical
intimacy (kissing, intimate touch, moments of romantic chemistry/passion) and/or moments of physical violence (falling, slapping, fainting) and handling/use of a prop gun.
SYLVIA VAN KIPNESS: Mid-20s - 40s, any ethnicity, female- A “lovely and rash romantic”. Feminine, yet strong-willed, Sylvia's attempts at true love leave her frustrated and ever-hopeful for a shocking turn of events.
BEAU: Mid-20s- late 40s, any ethnicity, male- “Perhaps the best-looking man in Britain.” Logical to the point of pessimism. Beau is the type of fellow who is quite happy with the status quo, no matter what the status quo may be.
MARJORIE: Mid-20s-40’s, any ethnicity, female- 8 months pregnant, pragmatic, and a tad spicy. Unflappable in every sense of the word. Unless of course, she's in labor.
CLARKE: Mid 20’s-Late 40’s, any ethnicity, male- Distinguished gent with a lover’s spirit. Always aiming to please, Clarke's kind-heartedness may lead others to take him for a fool.
DIERDRE: 20’s-30’s, any ethnicity, female- An awfully pretty, sometimes wise, nincompoop. Gullible is Diedre's middle name. She's awfully sweet though, if you like that sort of thing. Surprisingly capable of unexpected clarity and insight.
RICHARD 30’s-40’s, any ethnicity, male - A “murderous, yet gentle soul.” Born to be half of a soulmated duo, Richard is hell-bent on finding and keeping his true love (no matter what).
