After his younger brother, Buddy, shows up one day, ladies' man Alan Baker finds out Buddy has finally moved out of their father’s home. Alan allows Buddy to stay with him, and even teaches him how to be a suave, hip Manhattanite. Buddy quickly adopts Alan’s  lifestyle, while their father, Harry, grows frustrated at the irresponsibility of his sons. When Alan starts to realize the shallowness of his life, he worries that it is too late to save Buddy.

Please come prepared to complete an application (or bring a resume) headshot (if available), pen/pencil, and a list of conflicts.

PLOT:
It’s the year 1961. What does it mean to “grow up?” When does it happen? And, does everyone have the same experience? Neil Simon’s semi-autobiographical play, Come Blow Your Horn examines all of these questions through the lens of the Baker Family. There is Mr. Baker, who began working at age eleven and was married at twenty-one; Alan, his eldest son, is a thirty-something-year-old confirmed bachelor and womanizer; Buddy, the youngest, is Alan’s opposite -- hard-working, obedient, reserved, and unsure; Mrs. Baker is adept at the art of emotional manipulation and is prone to hysterics. Throughout the course
of the play, the family struggles to understand and adjust to one another, as the two sons
begin to grow up, and the parents realize that they are growing old.

NOTE:
One of the reasons that I chose this play is that it’s Neil’s first hit on Broadway and it has more complex characters and a plot that consists of more than a stream of one-liners.

CAST OF CHARACTERS:

*****All Ages are all open*****
Alan Baker: 30-45 30-year-old male, a man about town, handsome.
Peggy Evans: 18-35 A beautiful young lady in her 20s
Buddy Baker: 18-30 Alan’s 21-year-old brother, naïve
Mr. Baker: 50+ in is 60s; hard-working business owner
Connie Dayton: 18-35 A beautiful young lady
