Tuesday December 5th, 2023, between 7.30 and 9.30 pm at the Ditchling Village Hall, Ditchling, Lewes Road.
This play is an interesting study of family interactions and perceptions. On the surface the Rodales seem like an ordinary family, but the spark has gone out of Jill and Mal’s marriage. Their teenage son resents his father and their married daughter, Chrissie, has recently become a mother and is facing her own problems with her husband Dean.
Although they all give advice on how to cope with their situations, no one is really listening – until one day – when Jill and Mal have different views of their behaviour which gives rise to many hilarious situations and altered perspectives.
The audition is for two characters:
Dean – Jill and Mal’s son in law who also works with Mal. He is very much on the same wavelength as Mal on how to treat women.
(Age range mid to late twenties but possibly a bit older)
Chrissie – Jill and Mal’s daughter and long-suffering wife of Dean. Extremely concerned about her mother and who often “lets the cat out of the bag”.
(Age range mid to late twenties but possibly a bit older)
