Fading stage stars George and Charlotte Hay are clinging to one last shot at glory while performing repertory in Buffalo, New York. When they learn that famed director Frank Capra may be in the audience, it could be their big Hollywood break –  if their crumbling marriage, oversized egos, and a cascade of comic disasters don’t derail everything first.

Packed with mistaken identities, romantic mix-ups, and nonstop backstage mayhem, this high-energy comedic farce is a love letter to the beautiful madness of the theatre.

Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script, including monologues and partner scenes. Auditioners may be asked to stay beyond their allotted half hour time if available.

If you love big laughs, mistaken identities, and doors slamming at just the right moment, this is the show for you. So hysterically funny that comedy legend Carol Burnett starred in the Broadway production, Moon Over Buffalo is a fast-paced farce that will leave audiences and actors laughing from beginning to end.

As we prepared for auditions, we started looking through photos of past productions of Moon Over Buffalo from theatres around the country. One thing stood out to us: it was surprisingly difficult to find productions whose casts reflected the diversity of the communities they served.

At Waukesha Civic Theatre, we believe our stage should tell a different story.

We are committed to creating opportunities for our community to see themselves on our stage and invite all actors to audition for the roles that excite them. We encourage performers of every race, age, gender identity and expression, national or ethnic background, religion, body type, and lived experience with disabilities to bring their talent, creativity, and unique perspective to the audition room.

If you've ever wondered whether there's a place for you at Civic, we hope you'll join us at auditions. We would love to see what you bring to these unforgettable characters and help us create a Moon Over Buffalo that reflects the vibrant community we call home.
