The Brewster Theater Company, Inc.
announces auditions for their Fall 2009 production of
Come Back to the 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean
by Ed Graczyk
Come Back to the 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean tells the story of a
group of women, all members of a James Dean fan club, who meet on the
anniversary of his death in the small Texas town in which Giant was
filmed. Their reunion, peppered with flashbacks to the glory and pain of
their youthful devotion to their hero, gives rise to laughter,
reminiscence and startling revelations that bring self realization.

Be the first to know
about upcoming auditions!
Everyone is always encouraged to audition.
No Experience is necessary!
"I can’t act!", you say. But a theater has many other slots to fill
before a production is ready for an audience. Some are: build sets; write
publicity; box office; design programs; ushers; work on the Newsletter; props;
costumes; and on and on and on. So come and find out more about this fun
and fulfilling community group!
So what happens when you come?
You'll be asked to read a scene or multiple scenes from the play with several
other actors.
Very Important - Bring a list of dates (conflicts) when you will not be
available to rehearse.
If you are not cast on your first attempt, don't be discouraged. There are
lots of reasons director's cast a show the way they do and you may have an
opportunity in another show.
