The Lofte

The Lofte Community Theatre near Manley will hold auditions for "Leaving Iowa" on January 31 and February 1 at 7pm.  The production requires three men and three women.  Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script.  The production will be directed by Kevin Colbert of Weeping Water.

"Leaving Iowa" is the story of Don Browning, a middle-aged writer who decides it is finally time to take his father's ashes to his childhood home.  But when Don discovers that Grandma's house is now a grocery store, he begins traveling across Iowa searching for a proper resting place for his father.  The father-and-son road trip shifts smoothly from the present to Don's memories of the annual tortuous vacations of his childhood.

The production will serve as the Lofte's entry in the upcoming Nebraska Association of Community Theaters competition March 18-20.  It will also be the 2011 season opener for the Lofte with performance dates on May 28, 29, June 3-5 and 9-12.

Those with questions in regards to the production should contact Lofte Artistic Director Kevin Colbert at (402) 234-2553.
