Audition Notices

Martha Gillette - William's mother. A smartly dressed, somewhat vague and dithering woman. (60's - 80's)

William Gillette - A strikingly handsome man, smartly dressed, good humored, full of irony and life. A sort of modern-day Ulysses. (30's - 50's)

Felix Geisel - Married to Madge. He is histrionic and arch in a Lionel Barrymore/Sir Toby Belch sort of way. (30's-60's)

Madge Geisel - Married to Felix. She is flamboyant and wry in a Rosalind Russell smart-mouthed-gal-about-town sort of way. (30's - 60's)

Simon Bright - Married to Aggie. He is sweet and enthusiastic. (20's - 30's)

Aggie Wheeler - Married to Simon. She is beautiful, bright-eyed and full of spunk. Aggie and Simon are bothinnately affectionate and good-natured and make a wonderful couple. (20's - 30's)

Inspector Harriet Goring - She's British, eccentric, and one of a kind. One minute she seems wry and clever, the next minute she's off into a world of her own. She gets things wrong without even knowing it, yet she also seems just the sort of person who can find you out when you’re lying. (30's - 60's)

Daria Chase - She is gorgeous, glamorous and one of those people you can't take your eyes off of; and despite all of her show-biz cattiness, you can't help liking her - or at least admiring her. She has a sense of humor and has invented herself from the ground up. (20's to 50's)
