Footlighters audition for ‘Moon Over Buffalo’

By Richard O Jones | Monday, March 16, 2009, 12:00 PM

The Fairfield Footlighters will tryouts for their final production of the season, “Moon Over Buffalo” by Ken Ludwig, 6:30 p.m. March 23-24 at the Fairfield Community Arts Center, 411 Wessel Dr., Fairfield.

The script calls for four men and four women, stage ages 20s through 40s, plus one elderly woman.

SYNOPSIS: An acting couple not exactly the Lunts are on tour in Buffalo in 1953 with a repertory consisting of “Cyrano de Bergerac” revised one-nostril version and Noel Coward’s “Private Lives.” This backstage farce brought Carol Burnett back to Broadway. Fate has given these thespians one more shot at starring roles in “The Scarlet Pimpernel” epic and director Frank Capra himself in route to Buffalo to catch their matinee performance. Will Charlotte Hay appear or run off with their agent? Will George Hay be sober enough to emote? Will Frank Capra see Cyrano, private Lives or a disturbing mixture of the two. Hysterical misunderstandings pile on madcap misadventures, all of which are magnified by Charlotte’s dear mother who manages the theatre.

Heidi Schiller directs.

Performance dates are May 22-31.
