by Hill Country Community Theatre (HCCT)
Jul. 28 - Aug. 05 (2018)
Part of the smash hit “Don’t Hug Me” series, the story takes place in the fictional town of Bunyan Bay in a little bar owned by Clara and Gunner Johnson. Clara is eight-and-a-half months pregnant with their first child when a freak snow storm occurs as she goes into labor, and Gunner realizes he’s going to have to deliver the baby in the bar.
The Hill Country Community Theatre is seeking an actress for its upcoming musical comedy “Don’t Hug Me, I’m Pregnant.”
The character is that of Bernice, the ex-waitress at the bar, who dreams of going to Broadway. The character can be played by any ethnicity. Bernice is in her early 20’s to late 30’s, pretty, wholesome, sexy, thin, naïve and innocent. You must be able to sing, dance, do a Minnesota accent and have a sense of comedic timing. The music and dancing number are not difficult.

Those interested in auditioning should contact Mr. Rademaekers at (830) 693-2474, or email director@thehcct.org, to set an appoint for an audition.
