Casting boys and girls for the stage play "Drinking Habits." See the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Two nuns at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing have been secretly making wine to keep the convent's doors open, but reporters are hot on their trail. They go undercover as a nun and priest, but their presence, combined with the addition of a new nun, spurs paranoia throughout the convent that spies have been sent from Rome to shut them down. A comedy/farce sure to keep all ages laughing. Additional info: Please arrive on time and plan to stay for the entire evening. The director requests that you prepare a short, humorous monologue if you are able. The directors will also be doing cold readings from the script.
