Auditions this Friday for SSCC's "The Foreigner"

By
-


Open auditions for Southern State Community College’s upcoming production of Larry Shue’s “The Foreigner” will be held 6:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 8, in the Edward K. Daniels Auditorium on SSCC’s Central Campus in Hillsboro.

Audition preparation information is available at www.sscctheatre.com. Callbacks will be held the same evening.

In Shue's comic gem, you'll meet an unforgettable cast of zany characters. Charlie, an extremely shy proper Englishman who has a fear of speaking to strangers, is brought by his friend, Froggy, to a fishing lodge in rural Georgia, where Froggy tells everyone that Charlie is a foreigner who doesn't understand a word of English. Soon, everyone is fussing over and confiding in Charlie, including Betty, the kindly caretaker of this lodge; Catherine, a beautiful debutante engaged to be married; Ellard, her sweet but slow brother; and David, the minister to whom Catherine is betrothed. Charlie quickly discovers that all is not what it seems at the lodge and must somehow save the day -- without revealing his cover!

Directed by Rainee Angles, “The Foreigner” plays at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, March 5, and Saturday, March 6, and at 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, March 7. Contact Angles at rangles@sscc.edu or 1-800-628-7722, ext. 2794, for ticket information.
