AUDITION NOTICE: No Dinner for Sinners - Centenary Theatre Group

Title: No Dinner for Sinners

Presented By: Centenary Theatre Group

Genre: Comedy


Synopsis: Jim Watt runs the London office of a stock exchange firm and is hosting a dinner for the International Director and his wife, Bill and Nancy McGregor, prominent members of the anti-permissive society group. As Bill strongly disapproves of unmarried couples living together, Jim asks his girlfriend, Helen, to pose as his wife for the evening. Helen flatly refuses and walks out, leaving Jim scrambling for a solution. Desperate, he turns to his eccentric cleaning lady, Edna, who agrees to step in—for a fee, of course. Chaos ensues as Edna struggles to manage the evening while cooking an elaborate meal and entertaining the guests. To complicate matters, Helen returns unannounced, followed closely by Jim's young assistant, Terri. A hilarious web of miscommunications and quick lies unfolds as Jim tries to save his job—and his sanity.
