You can be a part of the fun too -- on stage or back stage By SAM HANCOCK GLT member Georgetown Little Theatre Productions Inc. is holding auditions for their next two productions this Sunday, Sept. 26, 4:30-7 p.m. and Monday, Sept. 27, 7-10 p.m. Bookings are not required-- just show up at the start time at the GLT Studio, 33 Stewarttown Rd.

Please prepare one of the short monologues for your audition and read over the sides. As part of their 50th Anniversary Season, GLT is introducing a new production, dubbed "The Studio Shows", in addition to their three main-stage shows. The Studio Shows idea was conceived in part to provide a venue to produce plays GLT would not normally do as part of their regular season. Director Alex Kanarek will be directing two one-act plays: Lunch Hour by John Mortimer and The Dumb Waiter by Harold Pinter. Mortimer and Pinter are two of Britain's most engaging, and sometimes controversial, playwrights. In the Lunch Hour, two people working in the same office believe they are in love. The man books a lunch-hour rendezvous at a nearby small hotel, inventing a complicated cover story to fool the manageress. However, things don't quite turn out as the man expected. In Pinter's classic The Dumb Waiter, two small-time hit men await their victim in the basement of a disused cafe, passing the time by discussing items in the newspapers and making tea. But who is the intended victim and when are they arriving? The Studio Shows run in December and will be performed at the GLT Studio. Rehearsals begin in October-- dates and times to be determined. As our first mainstage production of 2011, Pam Niesiobedzki-Curtis is directing Bedtime Stories by Canada's own Norm Foster. Six scenes about-- and on!-- beds, Foster's rollicking comedy of human frailty has 15 comic characters including a rhythmically challenged striper, an aging rock star, and a thief who discovers his wife is having an affair. There will be a play-reading of Bedtime Stories on Sept. 22 at the GLT Studio starting at 7:30 p.m. Rehearsals for THE GEORGETOWN BOYS REHEARSAL 2008 Bedtime Stories will begin in October with character work. Scene rehearsals begin in November every Sunday. Starting in January, rehearsals will be every Sunday and Wednesday nights. Bedtime Stories runs late February and early March at Christ the King High School. If you're interested in helping out backstage for either production or future show such as props, set building & painting, costumes, box office, etc., please note that previous experience is not necessary-- GLT welcomes all newcomers. Please contact the Studio at 905-877-3422. Congratulations Georgetown Little Theatre from all of us at Your Insurance House!
