Published August 20, 2008 05:25 pm - WEEKENDER, August 22,2008: G. B. Community Theatre at the Ashtabula Arts Center will be holding auditions for its opening show of the season, “Zombies from the Beyond” Monday and Tuesday from 6 - 8 p.m. Auditions slated for arts center production Star Beacon ASHTABULA — G. B. Community Theatre at the Ashtabula Arts Center will be holding auditions for its opening show of the season, “Zombies from the Beyond” Monday and Tuesday from 6 - 8 p.m.
The show will be directed by Clay Nielsen of Madison. In this musical comedy, with book, music and lyrics by James Valcq, the laughs abound in the unlikeliest of settings as the Cold War and space race paranoia threaten the good folks at the fictional Milwaukee Space Center in 1955. The budding romance of rocket scientist Trenton Corbett and Mary Malone — the daughter of the Space Center commander — is jeopardized when a flying saucer lands in Milwaukee, piloted by the alien “Zombina” who is bent on procuring he — specimens to re-populate her planet. Can Mary uphold her lady-like demeanor while saving Milwaukee from a Red Menace and a flying saucer invasion? Can the stalwart men of Milwaukee survive brainwashing by a musical menace from another world? Taking its cue from pulp movies popular at the time, “Zombies from the Beyond” brings the 1950s nostalgically and hilariously to life with a tuneful, toe-tapping score. Cast members needed for this particular show will range in age from mid-late teens (including at least one teen/young adult male who can tap dance) through adults up to age 65. Those auditioning should come prepared with a one-minute reading plus a song to sing and a list of any schedule conflicts they may have. Performance dates will be Oct. 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 17 and 18. Rehearsals will begin immediately. For more information, contact the arts center at (440) 964-3396.
