• Auditions: Family Furniture

    Explorations Academy 1701 Ellis St., #215, Bellingham, WA, United States

    Auditions for the remaining roles in the BTG Satellites production of A. R. Gurney’s "Family Furniture" are scheduled for September 23rd, 6 pm - 8 pm, at the Explorations Academy (1701 Ellis Street, #215).

    Director Gregory Berry of Outsiders Inn has already cast the parents in this clear-eyed coming-of-age story of that certain summer in the 1950s when everything shifts for one particular family. Berry is looking for actors to fill the major roles of the younger members of the family. Those roles are:
    - Nick, the son, early twenties
    - Peggy, the daughter, a couple years older than Nick
    - Betsy, Nick's girlfriend, early twenties
    Actors are expected to be ready for movement and prepared to do some cold readings from the script.

    If necessary, there will be callbacks on September 24, 2026.

    One of the gems in Gurney’s body-of-work exploring WASP culture in America, Family Furniture performs at the New Prospect Theatre from November 12-22, 2026, with 7:30pm evening performances, and 2pm matinees on Sundays, with tickets at $15, and available at New Prospect Theatre via ThunderTix (tickets available in September 2026).

    BTG SATELLITES is a partnership between the Bellingham Theatre Guild and the New Prospect Theatre, to produce theater outside the confines of the BTG. All performances are at the New Prospect Theatre, 207 Prospect Street, Bellingham WA, and advance ticket purchases are always encouraged. Questions can be sent to satellites@bellinghamtheatreguild.com

    FAMILY FURNITURE is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, serving the Dramatists Play Service collection. (www.dramatists.com)

    Phil Connors, a seasoned big-city weatherman, is frustrated to be to reporting the annual Groundhog Day Ceremony in small town Punxsutawney, PA. His cynicism is in direct opposition to the cheery townsfolk, who
    are ready for their favorite Groundhog to not see his shadow and welcome an early spring. After disdainfully covering the rodent's negative forecast, he awakens the next day only to discover it's February 2 once more. Will Phil accept that he is doomed to repeat the same day over and over again? Or will he find the courage to change himself and his fate?

    Warnings: Some adult language, death, gunshots, smoke effects, flashing lights, suicidal ideation/attempts, and sexual assault (man attempts to kiss woman)
