I NEED MEN!!!!!!!!!

In a way I do, anyway.

I had enough people turn up to my auditions for "Summer of the Seventeenth Doll" to actually _choose_ between applicants (luxury!) for all but the two central male roles, Roo and Barney. And therein lies the rub.

Where are all the men?! (cries of recognition from everyone in Am-Dram at the moment)

Only one man the right age turned up, and he could do either role, so I'm left with a vacancy. There has to be some Aussie males out there interested in being in this Australian classic.

Help, anyone?

Okay, so Kimberley has the lots-of-females-in-a-play thing happening! Hooray!! My wish is that other clubs/directors will follow in Blak Yak/Kimberley's footsteps. To do my bit I am going to start hunting for MUSICALS (being the musical freak that I am) which have lots of good stuff for the ladies then documenting and ,if possible, collecting them for future reference. I know about "Nunsense" and I have been informed about a newish all-female musical called "Matchgirls" which sounds like a beauty. Then there is "Sweet Charity" and a great new musical by the same writers called "The Life". Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (You can post them here or email me).

Thanks fellow thespians!
Love Germaine.
