10A | WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18, 2021 | SIUSLAW NEWS Last Resort Players hold auditions for cast of 2 Last Resort Play- ers is proud to an- nounce auditions for a very special fall musical, “John & Jen.” Music Theater International calls “John & Jen” a “truly original musi- cal that honors brothers and sisters, as well as parents and children, set against the background of a changing America between 1950 and 1990.” The show brims with in- telligence, wit and beautiful melodies with a cast of only two people. “‘John & Jen’ is a tour-de- force for two actors, tak- ing them from childhood, through adolescence, and beyond,” Music Theater In- ternational continues. “A chamber musical, beauti- fully scored for piano and cello, ‘John & Jen’ is about connections, commitments and the healing of the hu- man heart.” This show is an outstand- ing vehicle for two strong singer actors. Last Resort Players is looking for a man and a woman with a stage age of 20 to 45. The vocal range for “John” is Ab2 to C5. The vocal range for “Jen” is F3 to F5.
