About the Play:
Before there was "Bewitched," there was the stylish and funny romantic
comedy, Bell, Book and Candle by John Van Druten. Gillian, a modern-day
witch, decides to amuse herself by casting a love spell on her handsome young
neighbor. Her life is turned upside-down when she gets supernatural assistance
from her eccentric aunt and beatnik-warlock brother. An enchanting comedy that
asks the question, "How much are you willing to change for the one you love?"
Show Sponsor: Lakewood Center Associates.

CHARACTER PROFILES
Shep Henderson - 30-40 - Shep
is an open and trusting person who's concerned about doing the "right" thing but
not naive, Intelligent and charming and masculine. Shep is a publisher. He
falls in love hard and fast with Gillian which is out of character for him but
still only slightly questions how this has happened to him. Must have strong
stage presence and "50s" style physical comedy ability. Can range from a Jimmy
Stewart to Rock Hudson type.
Nicky Holroyd - Younger brother
of Gillian-25-35 - He is flamboyant and a warlock who enjoys his gifts and
does not mind flaunting them or himself. Impish and somewhat "snarky" with great
comic timing , can be genuine at times. Although he initially appears an
easy going /fun loving person, there is a darker side he reveals when he feels
he has been betrayed.
Call 503-635-3901 to schedule
an appointment time.
