Little Theatre holds auditions Woy Woy Little Theatre will hold auditions this month for experienced 20 to 40-year-old actors for the play, A Streetcar Named Desire, by Tennessee Williams. Auditions will be held at the Peninsula Theatre in Woy Woy on January 20 and 22 from 7pm. Woy Woy Little Theatre’s David Wicks said the play
was so revered by the theatre world, and theatre goers, that it was constantly revived by the professionals, as recently as last year by the Sydney Theatre Company. The three lead roles are Blanche DuBois and her pregnant sister Stella who is married to Stanley Kowalski. These three are aged between early 20s and early 40s.

The main supporting characters are Harold Mitchell and Eunice Hubell, both mid20s to mid-40s. There are also six smaller roles consisting of four men and two women collectively aged between 17 and 75 years. Woy Woy Little Theatre’s president Ms Barbara Hickey said the production was a fantastic opportunity for aspiring younger actors and actresses to show off their abilities. “The play may be old but the characters certainly aren’t,” said Barbara who has announced her retirement from the theatre group.
Her husband John Hickey is directing the play and said he was certain there would be a big roll-up for auditions. Audition information is available from John on 4341 2931 for the play which will
be staged from May 16 to June 1 this year at Woy Woy’s Peninsula Theatre. Media release, 14 Jan 2014 David Wicks, Woy Woy Little Theatre
