Auditions for The Clean House by Sarah Ruhl will be held at the Steel Beam Theatre, 111 W Main Street, St. Charles IL on Monday December 7th and Tuesday December 8th from 7:00p.m.-9:00p.m. The Clean House is a very funny play about class, comedy and the true nature of love. Put together in one house a Brazilian housekeeper who aspires to be a comic, an eccentric sister who loves to clean, two doctors, one mistress and a couple who literally died laughing.
Auditions are being held for the roles of:
Lane, a doctor, a woman in her early fifties. She wears white.
Matilde, Lane's cleaning lady, a woman in her late twenties. She wears black. She is Brazilian. She has a refined sense of deadpan.
Virginia, Lane's sister, a woman in her late fifties.
Charles, Lane's husband, a man in his fifties. A compassionate surgeon. He is child like underneath his white coat. In the first Act, Charles plays Matilde's father.
Ana, a woman who is older than Lane*. She is Argentinean. She is impossibly charismatic. In the first Act she plays Matilde's mother.
Performances run Feb. 26- Mar. 20, 2016.
Actors are asked to prepare a one to two minute monologue and to read selected sides from the play. Sides will be sent upon request by e-mailing the director Marge Uhlarik-Boller at muhlarikboller@gmail.com. Please put The Clean House in the subject line.
