AddressHackett Hall, Draper St (Off Underwood Ave) Floreat, WA
Written in Ben Elton's inimitable style this is an hilarious satire on the power of the media, the tabloid press and the effect of bad reviews on the sensitivities of actors. Set in England in the early 90's, it revolves around a gossip columnist who enjoys writing scathing reviews on people -- but who ends up paying the ultimate price for it.

CHARACTERS:
Sidney: 40 - 50 years old. Witty editor who wants Doris to work for him and who has just returned after spending a long time in America.
Doris: 30 - 40 years old. "Big, bold, brassy, witty, women's features journalist. She has her own TV-comment column which is pure abuse."
Peggy: 30 - 40 years old. Severe, efficient, dowdy, PA to Doris.
Douglas: 50 - 60+ years old. Doris' accountant. Very conservative.
Eduardo: 21 years old. Toy boy to Doris. "Handsome, cocky, streetwise, male bimbo."

Auditions will be held at Hackett Hall on Sunday December 14th at 2:00pm
