AUDITION NOTICE The Drunkard
A 19th century melodrama… by Barry Manilow?!
Based on “the world-famous melodrama by W.H.S. Smith,” Bro Herrod and the king of 1970s pop take us back to a simpler, infinitely less subtle day in this deliciously coy and exaggerated play about the good, the bad, and the besotted. When Sweet Mary Wilson weds the virtuous Edward, the villainous lawyer Cribbs, determined to foreclose on the quaint little cottage Mary shares with her poor widowed mother, sees to it that the devil’s beverage-alcohol-is served. Alas and alack! Edward is lured to the city and ensnared in a web of sin and drunkenness! Can Mary and her innocent young child save her inebriated husband from the evils of the bottle? And what of the diabolical Cribbs?

Thank you Noella, I hope my subscribers check back on my posts and read your description of Christmas day in Australia. I enjoyed hearing how you celebrate with outdoor picnics and bar-be-ques.
Hugs, Gail
