Notes from Glynn
Boeing-Boeing is a classic farce written by the French playwright Marc Camoletti. Set in the 1960s, American bachelor Bernard is enjoying life in his Paris apartment, juggling three attractive stewardesses - all engaged to him without knowing about each other. Things get complicated when his old friend, Robert, comes to stay, and a faster Boeing jet foils Bernard’s careful scheduling and all three fiancées arrive at his apartment on the same night.
The play had a Tony Award winning resurgence in 2007 with Mark Rylance.
I’m looking forward to a fun, fast and funny production and need a cast to throw themselves wholeheartedly into it.
Bernard: (M) 30s/40s - A playboy living in Paris, Bernard is happily engaged to three different women, and successfully keeping them apart - although he is the cause of the deception he oozes charm and likeability.
Gloria: (F) 20s/30s An American airline stewardess from New York City, Gloria is engaged to Bernard. She is a go-getter, confident, sexy and works for TWA.
Gabriella: (F) 20s/30s An Italian airline stewardess, also engaged to Bernard. She is passionate, sensitive and romantic and works for Alitalia.
Gretchen: (F) 20s/30s A German airline stewardess, also engaged to Bernard. She is strong and direct and works for Lufthansa.
Berthe: (F) 40-80 - Bernard’s French housekeeper, Berthe is always exhausted and exasperated. Berthe has no time for the shenanigans.
Robert: (M) 30s/40s An old time friend of Bernard’s, Robert shows up unexpectedly at Bernard’s Paris home - more moralistic and less lucky in love but easily led. Good humoured, friendly and full of nervous energy.
Auditions are 3rd December and 10th December but rehearsals won’t start until January. I am hoping to keep it to two rehearsals a week with one additional in the last month.
