Seeking Directors For 2016

The Brunswick Little Theatre Board of Directors is seeking directors for the following shows:



APRIL

Moonlight and Magnolias  – possible 3 week run.

  Cast – 3 men, 1 woman.  One set, the office of David Selznick 

THE STORY: 1939 Hollywood is abuzz. Legendary producer David O. Selznick has shut

down production of his new epic, Gone with the Wind, a film adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's novel. The screenplay, you see, just doesn't work. So what's an all-powerful movie mogul to do? While fending off the film's stars, gossip columnists and his own father-in-law,
Selznick sends a car for famed screenwriter Ben Hecht and pulls formidable director Victor Fleming from the set of The Wizard of Oz. Summoning both to his office, he locks the doors, closes the shades, and on a diet of bananas and peanuts, the three men labor over five days to fashion a screenplay that will become the blueprint for one of the most successful and beloved films of all time.    




July 29-31, August 5-7 (possibility of 3 weekends?) 

Move Over Mrs. Markham

Comedy, Farce
Cast:  4 men, 5 women

THE STORY: To Sylvie it's the "goose" that she learned from Alistair, but to Philip, Joanna Markham's husband, it's "a variety of geese," and fifteen years of marriage is just about undone along with everything else in this wild zany free for all. Everything from Philip's business deals with Bow Wow Books and Alistair's near escape from
Joanna's chiding seduction to the naked G.P.O. girl and the specter of scandal is hilarious. A lot of bed hopping occurs as Sylvie winds up taking Alistair on "walkies" and the amazing Mrs. Markham gets her man her husband! 



The Board is also seeking proposals for a Mystery/Drama to be performed in October and a Coordinator for an August fundraiser (theme to be determined).
