TOP BUNK THEATRE – PORK & BEANS: Attorneys At Law
From the twisted minds who brought you “Soup & Hogan’s 16th Annual Hotdog Eating Contest” and “Sam’s Clam & Oyster Bar”, Sam Daly and Ethan Lang are back and better than ever with their newest, most rollicking musical yet: PORK & BEANS: Attorneys at Law! In the gritty, grimy, and undeniably groovy land of 1970s Chicago stand the two most legendary lawyers that have graced this sweet planet we call Earth. Augustus Pork and Lucius Beans, inseparable Harvard chums, have lawyered their way to the top, only to face off in the “Trial of the Century” as bitter rivals. Plug your nose and cannonball into the story of the highs and heartbreaks of their unbreakable bond turned brutal feud, accompanied by an ensemble of weird, wonky, and utterly wacky degenerates. Will their shattered friendship ever be mended, or will their deepest flaws tear them apart forever?
CHARACTERS:
*All characters are open to actors of any gender identity*
The roles of Pork and Beans have been cast
JUDGE GRUG: Gruff and no nonsense, this judge holds the court in an aluminum grip. This ain’t Grug’s first rodeo with Pork & Beans, and is accustomed to their antics. Alto or Baritone vocal range preferred, but not necessary!
TELLY PORTER: Confident, determined, and literal-minded, Telly is the reporter covering “The Trial of the Century”. With a past connection to Beans, Telly has a lot at stake with the coming legal proceedings. Soprano vocal range preferred, but not necessary!
L. RAND PUBERT ESQUIRE: Sniveling and slimy, Pube is Pork & Beans’ “greatest rival”, a far less successful lawyer who seems doomed to fail every time. Pube’s agenda is self serving, justice comes second. Tenor or Baritone vocal range preferred, but not necessary!
B.J. GRIFFIN: Smooth and charming, B.J. is a world famous slow pitch player, as well as the defendant in “The Trial of the Century”. Accused of a terrible crime, B.J. fights to keep his cool exterior from cracking. Baritone vocal range preferred, but not necessary!
BO SLAYLIFF: Stoic and sexy, Slayliff serves as the bailiff in “The Trial of the Century”. Sharing a palpable bond with Grug, Slayliff provides plenty of physical comedy throughout the show. Any vocal range welcomed!
ENSEMBLE: Ensemble members will play multiple distinct roles throughout the show. Characters include: Harry Dresher, Sheila Dogg, Alligator, and more!
COUSINS IN LAW PRODUCTIONS- Rodger & Hammerstein’s ROBOCOP
Cousins in Law Productions seeks stupidity at every turn. Past Fringe productions include sold out runs of Silence of the Lambs, Jr!, a TYA- parody of everyone’s favourite psychological thriller, and SPEED: A 1940’s Radio Drama, hosted by Orson Welles and starring Keanu Reeves- a visual feast for the ears!
SYNOPSIS: Cousins-in-Law Productions is proud to present Rodgers and Hammerstein’s ROBOCOP: The Musical. With a sweeping score by Rodgers and Hammerstein, dream ballets, killer robots, cocaine, the dehumanizing nature of capitalism and the inherent danger of letting massive corporations privatize public services- this is the hit 80’s movie like you’ve never seen before. And did we mention there are nuns with guns? Rodger and Hammerstein’s ROBOCOP: Part Man. Part Machine. All Musical.
CHARACTERS: We are seeking 8-10 actors who are strong singers, movers, and have strong comedic instincts. All characters from the ROBOCOP movie and R&H musicals such as Oklahoma, The Sound of Music, and The King and I are a possibility at this point. We are open to people of any gender playing any role. The role of Robocop has been cast.
