AUDITIONS

---

Auditions for Stone’s Throw Dinner Theatre’s upcoming Christmas  Show, 

"If It's Monday, This Must Be Christmas," a family comedy by Pat Cook, will be held at the theater on Monday, October 8 and Tuesday, October 9 at 7:00 pm.

The show will have 8 performances running November 29 through December 2, and December 6 through 9, 2018.

"If It's Monday, This Must Be Christmas," is the fifth installment in  the Harry Monday trilogy. (Harry never could count.)  Christmas time rolls around and our down-and-out gumshoe is short of cash as usual. He's down  to walking dogs for a few bucks when Harrigan's department store has its payroll stolen.  And who you gonna call? Loretta Mondello, the store  manager, has complete faith in Harry pulling this one off. Not only is  the payroll missing but, crime of all crimes, somebody kidnapped Santa  Claus! 

The store's St. Nick has gone missing, along with the money  and bonuses. And Harry has only one day, Christmas Eve, to solve the  case. Is Scarlet Kloontz, the all-too-friendly clerk, behind it all? Or  maybe Carson Page, the newest member of the Harrigan staff, who is also  in love with the boss's daughter? And why did Mildred Wolensky, owner of  a rival store, suddenly show up? Or Trixie O'Brien, an elf who was the  last one to see Santa before he vanished? Maybe that old con-artist buddy of Harry's, Louie Grandville, has pulled another gig? 

 As if clues weren't hard enough to find, Lieutenant Brogan shows up,  along with his 9-year-old daughter. And we get a glimpse into Harry's  past as he recalls his first case…in the third grade! What can a  flatfoot do to stay free of the fuzz and find the felons? In the  wonderful style of film noir, the wise cracks and plot twists fly faster  than Santa's sleigh in this yuletide whodunit.

Veteran director  Shannon Wendt, who directed Stone's Throw's 2016 hilarious comedy The  Christmas Express, will be heading up the production. The cast calls for  six women ages 25-75, five men ages 25-75, a girl age 7-11, and a boy age 8-11.  All aspiring actors are invited to try out. 

Audition scripts are  available by emailing shannon.h.wendt@gmail.com .

It is December 1936,  and Broadway star William Gillette, admired the world over for his  leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast  members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one  of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated  house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous.
