My Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding is a hilarious, heartfelt and true story of a divorced woman's journey of self-discovery and the son that turns her life into a hit musical. This play will make you laugh, cry and realize that nothing’s impossible. This was a musical sensation that took Toronto by storm and was the breakout hit of the 2010 New York Musical Theatre Festival, winning “Most Promising New Musical”. “Heartwarming! Infectious! You can’t help but like this sweet show.” THE GLOBE AND MAIL

Artistic Director: Bob Lackey
Musical Director: Brian Boggs

The various roles are described below:

DAVID: A straight, white, friendly musician (Tenor, 20’s-30’s)

JANE: Claire’s free-spirited Wiccan girlfriend and a counselor. (Mezzo, Belter, 37-45)

YOUNG DAVID: A well-adjusted teenager who loves his parents and Nintendo, he is a younger version of David. He feels responsible for his parents and is never overly surly. Also plays a Hooters girl/bus boy, and Betty, Irene’s stepmother.
(Tenor, 13-20)

GARTH: David’s father and Claire’s ex-husband. Like Claire, he loves his son. Never lecherous or vicious, his is instead earnest and often genuinely thrown for a loop. Also plays: Hooters guy 1 (Baritone, 30’s-40’s)

MICHELLE: A young, lesbian religious studies dropout, she is disillusioned with romance but welcomes Claire, David, and stray cats and choir members into her home. Also plays: Actor 2, Caroler 2, A Hooters chef, and Theresa, Irene’s mother.
(Mezzo with some soprano, 20’s-30’s)

IRENE: David’s girlfriend and an aspiring actress, studying to be an actuary. Also plays: Trish (Penny’s girlfriend) and Caroler 3. (Mezzo, 20’s-30’s)

There will also be cast members selected for chorus. Total number of cast will be less than 20. All cast members except for David and Claire will play various other chorus parts throughout the show.

Note: Auditions will be scheduled in one hour increments. Be prepared to arrive a half hour early to complete the audition form. The auditions will consist of a short choreography, a song and a reading. Please choose a song with which you are comfortable, and that highlights your voice. You must bring your music in the correct key with piano accompaniment.
