To those auditioning for one of the “strippers”: We’re not necessarily looking for tans and muscles here – these are real men! Be prepared to be in full stage light in a costume the size of a speedo (at most). But don't worry—lighting effects and clever staging will keep your private parts...well...private!

Additional Information: The musical version of The Full Monty (very similar to its movie predecessor) gets transplanted from the film’s English location to Buffalo, New York, so no British accents are needed. Please be prepared to list all potential rehearsal conflicts on the audition form. Selected readings of the play will be used for the auditions. It is highly advised that auditionees be familiar with the entire play. Familiarizing yourself with the music from The Full Monty would be beneficial. Perusal copies of the script may be borrowed for a limited time. Please be aware that limited copies are available. There will be a dance audition. Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes appropriate for dance. For perusal copies or additional information, contact the Guild's Casting Governor, Nancy Valentini, at casting@playersguildofdearborn.org or (313) 561-TKTS.
