Pier One Theatre holds auditions this weekend for “The Clean House,” written by Sarah Ruhl and directed by Peter Sheppard. Auditions are 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday and 4 to 7 p.m. Sunday at the Mariner Theatre. 

The play is a whimsical dramatic-comedy that deals with the way we use humor, interact with our family and loved ones, overcome language barriers and try to keep things from falling apart. It calls for five actors, four female and one male. Two actors will be playing multiple roles. As per the script’s instructions, actors auditioning should be ready to tell a good joke. 

For more information, contact the director, Peter Sheppard, at qtfan1121@gmail.com. The play will start performances in June.
