AUDITIONS for LIVING TOGETHER , Directed by Les Zetlein

Living Together by Alan Ayckbourn is the second play in Ackybourn’s comedy trilogy The Norman Conquests, each about the same traumatic family weekend in a Victorian house and garden. Living Together covers the action in the living room.

Three female and three male Characters. Note: Character ages are approximate only.

ANNIE: The Cinderella of the family. Stage age mid-20’s to mid-30’s. Careworn, generally acquiescent, can get angry if pressed. Impish sense of humour.

REG: Stage age late 30’s to mid-40’s. Annoyingly upbeat, makes ‘Dad’ jokes. Under his wife Sarah’s thumb. Very serious about the board games he invents and makes.

SARAH: Stage age late 30’s to mid-40’s. Likes to be in command. Fussy and bossy. Mother to several small children.

NORMAN: Stage age mid-30’s to mid-40’s. Intelligent, lazy, sarcastic, self-centred. Womaniser, and stirs up trouble at other’s expense.

RUTH: Stage age mid-30’s to mid-40’s. Hard-working, long-suffering wife of Norman. Awake to him, but is prepared to forgive up to a point. Short-sighted but usually too vain to wear her glasses. No children.

TOM: Stage age around 40. Local vet, looks after Annie’s cat. Well-built and solid, slow in movement and thought. Diffident and earnest. Thinks he loves Annie but can’t get round to telling her. The last to catch on to things.
