Theatre--Performance


After weeks of rehearsal, the Eunice Players’ Theatre is set to open its 41st season with What the Bellhop Saw, a two-act comedy by Billy Van Zandt and Jane Milmore on Thursday, April 15 at 7:00 p.m..  Director Jody L. Powell chose the show for its broad comedy, split-second timing and audience appeal.  Everyone needs to make plans now to see the show before dates sell out.
The story centers on two brothers, Wally, a bellhop in New York’s finest hotel, played by Casey Harmon of Crowley, and Georgie, the world’s most hen-pecked husband, played by John D. Kittles of Eunice.  Georgie’s plan to have an affair with his secretary, played by Angelle Bellard of Duson, is thwarted when his abrasive wife, played by Jerica Guillory of Eunice, arrives on the scene. 
Unbeknownst to any of them, the same room is secretly rented to an author believed to have written a controversial book, played by Larry Reppond of Eunice, and the inept CIA agent hired to guard him, played by Tucker Kelly of Crowley.  Wreaking havoc on all of them with a pig mask and a ticking bomb is an assassin bent on killing the author, played by Glenn “Jay” Mentel, Jr. of Opelousas.
The adjacent room holds a guest who wants peace and quiet while seemingly having a party of her own, played by Deborah D. Ardoin of Eunice, while the author’s pig-tailed daughter, played by Sarah Martel of Eunice is hidden elsewhere in the hotel
The bumbling hotel manager, played by Shane Guilbeau of Lafayette, and an aspiring-actress hotel maid, played by Morgan Booty of Crowley, find themselves in the middle of the shenanigans as identities are confused, and the bellhops keep multiplying. 
With this crazy cast of characters running in and out of windows and doors and hiding under the bed, things quickly spin out of control and into a delightfully absurd evening. 
Other performances set to follow opening night are April 16 – 17 and 21 – 22 at 7:00 p.m. with a matinee on Sunday, April 18 at 2:00 p.m.  Dinner theatre (with steak and trimmings) is scheduled for Tuesday, April 20 at 6:00 p.m. at Nick's on Second St., with the performance immediately following. 
Season ticket holders should call the number on their ticket for reservations.  Individual tickets are available at David’s Ltd. at 204 S. Second St. or by calling 457-2156.  Season tickets are still on sale; for $20 a season ticket includes 3 shows, reservation rights, voting privileges and an invitation to the Irving Awards. Angel and patron packages are also available for purchase.  Visa and MasterCard are accepted.  The theatre is located at 121 S. Second St. in Eunice.
More information can be found on Facebook or at euniceplayers.blogspot.com. Don’t miss your chance to see this side-splitting comedy.

Theatre--Audition (Musical Theatre)

Auditions for Acting Unlimited, Inc.'s production of Bat Boy: The Musical will take place at Cite Des Arts on Thursday, April 15th at 6pm and Saturday, April 17th at 3pm.

Bat Boy is the Lucille Lortel- and Outer Critics Circle Award-winning re-imagining of the story of the eponymous Weekly World News star. This high-energy, emotionally complex show brings to life the story of the Bat Boy, dragged out of his cave and taught by a veterinarian's family how to act like a human. When he innocently attempts to fit in with human society in the economically crippled town of Hope Falls, the desperate people turn on him. This darkly comic and hysterically tragic musical, which examines what it is to be human and how the past never leaves us, is recommended for adults due to mature subject matter (Auditioners must be 18+, 16+ with written parental permission--forms will be available at auditions and on the production blog).

Please prepare 16-32 bars of an upbeat contemporary Broadway musical number for auditions, and bring sheet music (but be ready to sing more of the song if the musical director requests it). An accompanist will be present. If the auditioner does not have sheet music the production team can be contacted--there will be several selections from appropriate shows at the theatre. Some suggestions for appropriate musicals are Rent, Ragtime, Avenue Q, Wicked, and anything from the works of Stephen Sondheim.  If no song is prepared, the musical director will ask to hear either "Memory" from CATS or "You'll Never Walk Alone" from Carousel.

The second part of the audition will be cold readings from the text. Auditioners are welcome to read for as many characters as they would like. There will also be a dance audition, so dress to move.

The production will run July 29-August 14 on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.


The roles are:

EDGAR (the Bat Boy): Young tenor to play 16. Charming, innocent, eager, but with an animal side.
SHELLEY PARKER: This role has been pre-cast.
MEREDITH PARKER: This role has been pre-cast.
DR. THOMAS PARKER: Tenor, 30-50. The town's veterinarian, the patriarch of the family who takes in the bat child. Charismatic, intelligent, with a dark secret and a willingness to protect it by any means.
SHERIFF REYNOLDS: Baritone to play 30-up. The only face of law enforcement in Hope Falls; good-hearted if not too bright, the Sheriff tries to keep his town from chaos.
RICK TAYLOR: Baritone/tenor to play 16-18. Shelley's boyfriend, Rick bears a grudge against the Bat Boy, and does what he thinks is right--often without considering the consequences.
REV. BILLY HIGHTOWER: Tenor OR alto to play 30-up. The traveling evangelist who tries heroically to raise the spirits of the citizens of Hope Falls.
MAYOR MAGGIE: Mezzo-soprano to play 30-up. The mayor of Hope Falls.
MRS. TAYLOR: Tenor OR alto to play 30-50. Rick, Ron, and Ruthie's sadistic mother.
PAN: Tenor OR alto, any age. The forest spirit Edgar and Shelley encounter in the woods.
RON TAYLOR: Mezzo to play mid-teens, pants role. Rick's youngest sibling, the gentlest of the Taylors.
RUTHIE TAYLOR: Any vocal range (no solos) to play young teen. Rick and Ron's sister, the middle Taylor sibling, who is bitten by the Bat Boy.
NAMED TOWNSPEOPLE (Lorraine, Daisy, Mr. Dillon, Bud, Roy, Ned, Clem): Various vocal types, ages, and genders. The desperate people of Hope Falls, struggling to survive when the second industry their town attempts fails, now willing to find a scapegoat.

Performance--Musical Theatre

The Dream of the Marionettes, a burlesque-inspired musical, features an all-star cast of Lafayette locals, with music performed by a live band. The show begins each night at 6:30pm with Cirque du Cite, in the Cite des Arts lobby, featuring fortune tellers, jugglers, stilt-walkers, and an assortment of circus side shows. The play begins at 7:30pm.

In Les Marionettes, a hard, task-driving puppetmaster is cast aside by a freedom-seeking band of marionettes, who begin to express their hidden dreams and aspirations in song. The play was co-written by local artists Christine Leichty and Johanna Divine, with an original score by Divine and Daniel Coolik, and choreography by New Iberia native, John Vincent.

Divine and Leichty hope Les Marionettes offers something different to audiences; “We want to create a new experience – a unique piece that showcases the incredible talent found in Lafayette,” Leichty says. They also hope the piece helps re-define the concept of burlesque; “A lot of people think of burlesque as being risqué, “ Divine says, “but we’re presenting it as it was at the turn of the century, focused on parody and satire. It’s a comedy, first and foremost.”

The show is running as a part of Festival International de Louisiane from April 21 to April 25, 2010. Pre-show festivities begin at 6:30 each night, so come early for the best seats! For pre-sale tickets, contact Cite des Arts at (337) 291-1122 or at www.citedesarts.org.

Lafayette High School will present its annual Broadway musical Tuesday, April 20th and Wednesday, April 21st at 6:30 and Thursday, April 22nd at 2:00 in the LHS auditorium.  The play with the intermission is just over 1 ½ hours.
                A hit on Broadway, A Year With Frog And Toad was nominated for 3 Tony Awards - including Best Musical.  Arnold Lobel's beloved characters from his award-winning children’s books hop from the page to the stage in Robert and Willie Reale's musical, A Year With Frog And Toad. Developed by Mr. Lobel's daughter, Adrianne Lobel, the stage musical remains true to the spirit of the original stories as they followed the adventures of two great friends, the cheerful and popular Frog and the rather grumpy Toad through four fun-filled seasons.
                Waking from hibernation in the spring, they proceed to plant gardens, swim, rake leaves and go sledding , learning life's lessons along the way, including a most important one about friendship and rejoicing in the attributes that make each of us different and special.
                This is Lafayette High’s 39th annual Broadway musical production.  There will be three shows: Tuesday, April 20th and Wednesday, April 21st at 6:30 pm and Thursday, April 22nd at 2:00 at the

Theatre--Auditions


Chez Gisele is a drag musical comedy noire.  It's a tribute to the life of a lovely French woman, Gisele  Carriton (1928-2008) who had the first gay cabaret nightclub in Lafayette from the late 1960s to the early 1970s.

It was an era of emerging civil rights for gay and African-Americans, who wildly supported Chez Gisele because it was a safe haven for acceptance.  Gisele was put into the spotlight by a local bigot with political ambitions, Puggy Moity.  He used his television show and newspaper to slander and libel Gisele and build a consensus of hatred directed at her personally; calling her a madam and her nightclub a house of male prostitution.

Gisele had to make her nightclub into a private membership club to protect her customers because of a hate crime that occurred at the bar.  She strictly kept the identity of her customers protected as she wanted them to have one place in their lives where they were free of harassment, hate, prejudice and simply be themselves.  Within the walls of Chez Gisele gay people and African American heterosexual couples could find acceptance, entertainment, fun, Parisian elegance, and unconditional love from Gisele who was considered a friend and extended family.

Unfortunately, the murder of a Chez Gisele employee took place in the parking lot of the nightclub, and was never prosecuted, an occurence not uncommon at the time as crimes against gay people didn't carry the interest of the police or judicial system. 

Despite the circumstances of hate and murder, Gisele herself was a very playful, happy person with  a great sense of humor.  She loved using colorful expressions and being a clown to lighten the spirits of those around her.  The music of the play assists to tell the story of colorful characters that passed through Chez Gisele and recreate poignant memories of an era in Lafayette history.  Chez Gisele was more than the house of Gisele, it was the birth of an attitude of grace that is still growing today.



Actors Needed:

 
Gisele “Gigi” Carriton - age 30-45 can do a French accent, female
 Clarence Dupuis - age 20-35 handsome and well built, male
 Miss Doo - age 20-40 able to be a drag queen, man or woman
 Miss Marie - age 20-40 able to be a drag queen, man or woman
 Miss Fancy Fontenot - age 20-40 able to be a drag queen, man or woman
 Miss Hannah - age 30-60 man or woman Cajun looking a plus
 The Reverend - age 30-60 man
 Sofonda Peters - age 20-35 man or woman to be able to play a transvestite
 Puggy Moity - age 35-60 man
 Sheriff Landry - age 30-60 man
 Gov. Edwin Edwards - age 30-60 man


The roles of the Gisele, The Reverend and the drag queens require the ability to lipsync and dance.
It isn't necessary to bring something to read as people will be asked to read from the script.

Auditions will be Monday, April 5th and Wednesday, April 7th at 6:30 pm at Cité des Arts, downtown Lafayette.  For more information about the auditions,  please call (337) 291-1122.  The play will be performed at the Cite Des Arts main stage theater, 109 Vine St., Lafayette, LA. 70502,  May 20th through the30th (Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays).   Performances will be at 7:30 pm with Sunday matinees at 2:30 pm.  Tickets are 10.00 for students and senior citizens,  and general admission is 15.00.  Tickets can be obtained in advance by calling (337) 291-1122.
