Noosa Arts Theatre Auditions

RUMOURS by Neil Simon:

Charley Brooks is the Assistant Deputy Minister of Finance in His Majesty’s Government and he and his wife, Vivian have invited a group of friends to their Wedding Anniversary Party when events take a turn for the worse. An attempted suicide on Charley’s part could make for a pretty ugly scandal so his friends decide to cover up the attempt and it doesn’t go well.
As each couple arrive, the stories get more interesting and the intrigue builds further.
What really happened?
