Tehachapi Community Theatre announces auditions for Tom Topor&amp;rsquo;s Broadway hit, Nuts. Auditions will be held at TCT&amp;rsquo;s Studio Theatre, located in the TAPA building at 48771 Valley Blvd. Saturday, January 20 from 2pm - 4pm and Monday, January 22 at 6:30pm. Directed by Annette Kirby this show starts rehearsals immediately and will hit the boards in April 2007. Ms. Kirby wants all who audition to be aware that this production has strong adult language and content.&amp;nbsp; 
Nuts has been called the best courtroom melodrama since Witness for the Prosecution and The Caine Mutiny Court Martial&amp;nbsp; . Set in a courtroom in New York&#039;s Bellevue Hospital, the story concerns an incarcerated woman&#039;s valiant attempt to fight those who want to have her committed as mentally incompetent to stand trial on a manslaughter charge. The State, represented by a court appointed psychiatrist and an aggressive prosecutor, say Claudia Faith Draper is nuts. &amp;quot;[Has] the audience rooting for the good guys and hating the bad guys, as if the whole event was the most beautifully professional wrestling match you have ever seen. Nuts is a play that moves you ... you are in court watching a woman fight for what she believes is her total future.&amp;quot; N.Y. Post. .
Ms. Kirby is looking for six males ranging in age from mid-20&amp;rsquo;s and up, and three females, ages 30 and up. As with any production, plenty of behind the scenes help is always needed and appreciated. Needed for this production are an Assistant Director/Stage Manager to help with blocking and takes notes, a house manager, a costumer, a props person and various stage hands for set construction and decor.
