All actors should prepare 2 contemporary 1-minute monologues; one comedic and one dramatic. They also need to bring a resume and headshot.

About the show:  The Big Heart Bar and Grille is a rural bar in Pueblo, Colorado where a bevy of colorful characters can always be found on a Saturday night. On this particular Saturday the most loyal patrons are bemoaning the opening of a competing country & western disco across town.  These die-hards open their hearts, struggle against past mistakes, and try to ensure the bad guys get what they have coming.  This is a fun, down-to-earth romp with real people who will remind you of folks you know -- maybe even yourself.

Rehearsals start March 26, 2012. Performance dates are April 20 – May 13, 2012 on the Aurora Fox main stage.
