Bull in a China Shop
The Lancaster Playhouse is holding auditions for their March production of C.B. Gilford’s Bull in a China Shop to be directed by Shelly Riggs. Auditions will take place December 12th and 13th with show dates March 20th - 29th.
Written in 1958, Bull in a China Shop is a comedy bordering on farce, a ridiculous romp full of kooky characters. Gilford’s play takes the “old maid” trope and introduces us to the amorous elderly ladies living in Hildegard Hodge’s boarding house - mature gals who are obsessed with a middle-aged cop who lives across the street. Think of it as a sorority house for grandmas!
Naughty old women. Morbid humor. A bit of a mystery. Whether interested in auditioning or being a part of the production team, or both, sign up today and help The Lancaster Playhouse open our 2026 season with Bull in a China Shop.
