Nuremberg Community Players to hold Auditions for “Are You Being Served?”

Special to the Sentinel

NUREMBERG – The Nuremberg Community Players will be holding open auditions for their upcoming comedy production, “Are You Being Served?”, by Jeremy Lloyd & David Croft. 

Auditions will be held at the home of the Nuremberg Community Players, 283 Hazle Street, Nuremberg.  Auditions will be this Sunday and Monday, February 2nd and 3rd from 6-8pm.  

Proposed audition snow dates are Feb 7th-8th at the same time.  Shows will be presented on April 17th-19th.

To the delight of fans everywhere, “Are You Being Served?”, the hugely popular British television comedy, is brought to the stage by its creators in all its original glory and revels in nonstop double entendres.  Lovers of innuendo and British humor, Flying Circus fans and seekers of laughs – look no further than this uproarious play. 

As the motley crew of the Grace Brothers department store prepares for a sale of German goods, they depart for a staff holiday and stay at a one-star establishment in Spain.  

​Will their stay in the tropics and their encounters with everything from a Spanish crumpet to randy revolutionaries prove to be too much?  Or with the aid of a nun’s habit, a bowler hat, and a pair of Union Jack knickers, will they survive with everything intact but their modesty?

Auditions are for adults only due to the mature nature of the material.  A British Accent will be required for auditions.  Those auditioning will read from excerpts of the script, which will be provided at auditions.  

The cast consists of eight men and 4 women.  The first rehearsal will be held on Feb 9th at 6pm.  Anyone interested in auditioning for the show or anyone willing to help with the production in any way is encouraged to attend.
