The Theater League of Clifton will hold auditions for its 2024
dinner/theater production,
A Tribute to Carol Burnett WHEN: Nov. 13, 15 and 20, 7-9 p.m.
WHERE: Mario’s
Restaurant, 710 Van Houten Ave. Clifton, N.J. Actors selected for the production will reprise roles and perform
favorite skits from the popular Carol Burnett Show, which aired
for 11 seasons (1967-1978) on the CBS television network and won
numerous Emmy awards.
Bill Kaufman is the director of the show. Kaufman directed the
Theater League’s successful 2023 dinner/theater production of Meshuggah-Nuns. Mark Peterson, the president of the Theater
League of Clifton, will serve as the show’s producer. Kaufman said that he’s “seeking four men and four women with
strong comedic skills who can play characters from the Carol
Burnett Show (for auditions on Nov.13 and
15). Singing ability is a
plus.
For the audition on Nov. 20, he's seeking variety performers
who can impersonate, such as singers who would be guest artists
on the show (for example Julie Andrews, Cher, and Frank
Sinatra.). He's also looking for stand-up comedians, magicians,
and drag artists. Tapes also can be sent to him via email at bjkdirect58@gmail.com. This is a
non-paying community theater.
The dinner/theater show will be held at Mario’s Restaurant, and performance dates in 2024 are slated for February 10, 11, 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 25, and March 2, 3.
Founded in 2005, the Theater League of Clifton (website: www.theaterleagueofclifton.com)
is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering an
appreciation of the arts through theatrical performances, while
providing quality entertainment for all ages. The Theater League
of Clifton welcomes volunteers in all aspects of performance and
