NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- The Little Theatre of New Smyrna Beach will hold auditions for "Out of Order," a comedy by playwright Ray Cooney, at 7 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 23 and Monday, Nov. 24.

Auditions are held in the Little Theatre rehearsal hall and are open to everyone and no experience is necessary. Readings will be from the script and
a copy is available for viewing at the reference desk of the New Smyrna Beach Library.

The show will run two weekends: Jan. 9 & 10 and Jan. 15, 16 & 17 at 8:00 p.m. Matinee performances are on Jan. 11, and Jan. 18, at 2 p.m. The director is

John Stenko and roles are available for six men and four women (30-60 years old).

Out of Order is a tangled web of hilarious deceit, madcap frolics and zany character craziness.

Conservative Government MP, Richard Willey, a suave and successful man, is attempting to have an affair with one of the secretaries of the leader of the Opposition in a top London hotel. He opens the curtain in the room and finds a dead body stuck in the window. So he tries to hide the body. However, with a conniving waiter, a suspicious hotel manager, an alert private detective, an angry wife, a furious husband, a bungling secretary, an unconscious nurse and a dead body, nothing is going to go as planned.

Double takes, doubledealing, and frisky two-timing characters with mistaken identities, Out of Order is an audition you won't want to miss.

For further information call the Little Theatre box office at (386) 423-1246, located at 726 Third Ave., New Smyrna Beach. It is open 1-4 p.m. Monday through Friday
