Vermont Pride Theater at Chandler to hold auditions for “Jeffrey”

Saturday, April 23 at 1:30 p.m. — RANDOLPH — Auditions for Paul Rudnick’s Obie-award-winning 1992 play “Jeffrey,” directed by Richard Waterhouse, are being held at Chandler Music Hall in Randolph on Saturday April 23, from 1:30 to 4 p.m. Performances will take place on Saturday, July 23 and Sunday, July 31, during Vermont Pride Theater’s sixth annual summer pride festival.

“Jeffrey” is Paul Rudnick’s over-the-top AIDS comedy about a gay actor/waiter who has sworn off sex after too many bouts with his partners about what is “safe” and what is not. Suddenly, just after he’s reconciled himself to celibacy, Jeffrey’s flamboyant friends introduce him to the man of his dreams, who also happens to be HIV-positive. Justin Quackenbush will play the title role and Dawn Kearon, all the women in his life. To complete the eight-person cast, Mr. Waterhouse is seeking men in their 20s through 50s.

Those interested in auditioning, contact Mr. Waterhouse for audition materials at rikwala@gmail.com or 646-656- 0879.
