The play will be double cast, so each character will have two actors/actresses ready for each performance. Nancy Wilson, the play’s director, is looking for 10 men and 10 women over age 16 to fill the roles. The melodrama revolves around local philanthropist, Camilla Reitman and her family. Will Eugenia & Henry Lorenz find a suitable suitor for their daughter, Camilla? Or, will Camilla's cooking be a recipe for disaster and cost her the affections of the right man (our hero, Carl Rightman)? Will the villainous Leopold Lecher and his lackeys follow through with their “gold”en opportunity and continue their chaos? All these questions, and more, are answered on stage at the Sawdust Theatre this summer!
