Event by Mid Ohio Valley Players Inc   229 Putnam St, Marietta, OH, United States, Ohio 45750   Duration: 2 hr   Public  · Anyone on or off Facebook Join us May 19, 20, and 21 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. for our Jr. Players audition of The Creepy Creeps of Pilgrim Road. Auditions will take place upstairs in our annex located next door to the theater at 227 Putnam Street. These auditions are open to kids ages 8-16. Performance dates are August 9, 10, and 11. "Step aside, Addams Family, the Creeps are moving in to the dilapidated mansion in Edible Falls in this monstrously funny musical! Heading the home is Sinbad and his captivating spouse, Tarantula. We also meet up with their teenage niece, Sally, gorgeous maid Lullaby Jones, and a butler who just happens to resemble a billy goat. Unfortunately, Flora Limetree, a local society dragon, loathes the Creeps. Each year she enters Pilgrim Road in the All-American Street Contest. But every year the street loses, due, in her opinion, to the appearance of the Creeps’s house. Evily scheming with her nephew, Bubba, Flora re-draws the town limits, and the Creeps find themselves outsiders. To complicate matters, Prince Un Ravel arrives from Egypt as a guest in the Creeps’s household, and ’M.D.’ (short for Mysterious Dude) falls in love with Sinbad’s grandmother, who just happens to be raising crocodiles in the dungeon! Throw in your basic pirates and vultures, add a talking clock and a lively, ghostly portrait, and top it off with an ancient telephone operator who lives in the walls." Presented with permission by Pioneer Drama Service. Directed by Kay Doak with assistance from Nicholas Rake and Melanie Elliott. Please bring a summer schedule of any and all conflicts (vacations, camps, games, other practices, etc.) We will read from the script and learn a song from the show to sing at auditions. If you have a song prepared, you may do that as well but it is not required.
