Bleak Expectations
Directed by Barry Lefort
Auditions for “Bleak Expectations” (play) will be held on 4th and 5th May at 10.30am at The Limelight Theatre
Bleak Expectations is a fast-paced comedy mashup, Dickens with a dash of Monty Python, that sends up Britishness with lots of silliness, zings with intelligence, imagination and comic anarchy.
In fact, the story Charles Dickens might have written after drinking too much gin!
Plenty of great roles, the Bin family, mother, father, son, two daughters, more female and male roles, great characters and some double ups, and a Narrator Sir Philip Bin.
Performance dates are as follows: 12th, 13th, 14th, 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 26th, 27th, 28th
