Javea Players auditions

THE Javea Players are holding auditions for their upcoming performance of Wife After Death.

“Comedian and national treasure Dave Thursby has died; friends and colleagues gather to pay their last respects. This is an excellent opportunity for four women and two men in the six strong parts, the ages can be flexible,” said a spokesperson for the group.

The roles wanted are Laura Thursby (40s, widow, vain, showy, theatrical), Vi Barret (older than Laura with a fuller figure. Wry attitude to the events going on around her), Harvey Barret (50s untidy, resentful man), Kevin Prewitt (younger than Harvey. Overdoes the grieving agent), Jane Prewitt (Kevin’s wife, thin, gawky), and Kay (50s, Dave’s first wife. Glamorous, shapely).

Auditions take place on Friday June 9 at 7pm and Saturday June 10 at 10am at the Javea Players’ Studio. Rehearsals start in September and the show will be from October 30 to November 4.
