We will also be performing a SENSORY FRIENDLY performance on one of the Saturdays at 2:30 PM! This will be finalized by the first read through!
PLOT: Welcome to Truvy's beauty salon, where all the ladies who are "anybody" come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant, Annelle, the outspoken wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town's cast of characters. Filled with hilarious reporter and humorously revealing verbal collisions, the play offers a truly touching, funny, and heartfelt story about friendly company in good times and bad.
WHAT TO PREPARE
Please prepare ONE dramatic or comedic monologue up to 2 minutes in length. It can be from a play, a television show, a movie, a poem, anything! We request monologues not be from Steel Magnolias. If you need assistance selecting a monologue, please reach out to Director Kira Mailey-Parker ([email protected]) or Producer Zach Wood ([email protected]) for monologue examples.
Following monologues, we will be doing cold readings from scenes in the play!
All characters are female identifying in the show, but Flint Community Players welcomes all actors of any gender identification to audition!
