On the brink of a disastrous split-up caused by George’s dalliance with a young ingenue, they receive word that they might just have one last shot at stardom: Frank Capra is coming to town to see their matinee, and if likes what he sees, he might cast them in his movie remake of “The Scarlet Pimpernel.” Unfortunately for George and Charlotte, everything that oould go wrong does go wrong, abetted by a visit from their daughter’s clueless fiancé and hilarious uncer- tainty about which play they are actually performing, caused by Charlotte’s deaf old stage-manager mother who hates every bone in George’s body. Four men, stage ages 20 to 60 years old, and four women, stage ages 20 to 70 years old, are needed. LRP seeks an ensemble cast, with a strong leading man and woman. There will be parts for sen- ior actors and tech and stage crew inquiries are welcome. “Moon Over Buffalo” rehearsals start Sunday, Jan. 8.
