Auditions!!! Auditions!!! Auditons!!!
Who remembers the 1944 Murder/Comedy ARSENIC AND OLD LACE with Cary Grant?

At the old Brewster home in Brooklyn, a pair of elderly sisters mix up a very special elderberry wine, which they "charitably" serve to lonely gentlemen houseguests. The antics of their nephews, Teddy, who thinks he is Theodore Roosevelt; Mortimer, a manic theatre critic; and Jonathan, an escaped murderer, make for hilarious mayhem. Add a liberal dose of good old-fashioned law and order and the stage is set for farce and fireworks. Arsenic and Old Lace will delight anyone who loves to laugh and is a great show for the whole family!

Auditions are being held on Saturday, April 3 from 1 -5 pm at the Windham Town Hall/ Community Center. Director Leo Lunzer is looking for adults of all ages to come be a part of bringing this entertaining movie classic to life on stage at the Windham Center Stage Theater.
