Auditions for “Always A Bridesmaid”

Presented by The Rialto Community Players

About the Show:

Always a Bridesmaid by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, and Jamie Wooten is a laugh-out-loud Southern comedy about four lifelong friends who made a pact at their senior prom: to be in each other’s weddings—no matter what. Over the next thirty years, that promise is tested in increasingly hilarious and heartfelt ways as life throws curveballs, love stories, and more than a few wedding disasters their way. Full of sharp wit, big personalities, and genuine heart, this show celebrates enduring friendship, resilience, and the kind of bonds that survive everything—especially bridesmaid dresses.

Director – Meghan Harris

Cast of Characters (all women)

*ALL ROLES ARE OPEN* Ages are approximate and can be adjusted based on casting.

Kari Ames (Late 30s–40s) – The practical, no-nonsense friend whose life is often the most grounded of the group. Strong, loyal, and the emotional anchor. Kind-hearted, spirited Southern charmer

Libby Ruth Ames (Late 30s–40s) – Kari’s cousin. Endlessly optimistic, dramatic, and determined to find lasting love—no matter how many weddings it takes. Hopeless romantic, sweet country woman, plain-spoken and guileless

Sedalia Ellicott (50s–60s) – vivacious, outspoken friend with a flair for drama and a quick wit, always ready to stir up fun and keep everyone on their toes. Gregarious, energetic Virginia hostess and life-force

Monette Gentry (Late 30s–40s) – Sweet, spirited, and slightly scatterbrained. A romantic at heart with big dreams and even bigger wedding ideas. Kinda flashy, kinda trashy, Southern-to-the-bone flirt

Charlie Collins (Late 30s–40s) – Sharp-witted and successful, but unlucky in love. Independent and quick with a comeback. Tree-hugging, Birkenstock-wearing, acerbic Southern free spirit

Deedra Wingate (Late 30s–40s) – Wealthy, confident, and larger-than-life. Loves luxury, control, and making an entrance. Headstrong with a dry wit, no-nonsense Northern transplant
