Kid Actors Needed for "It's a Madhouse!" Show
Kids between the ages of 8 and 18 are invited to audition for "It's a Madhouse!" Show. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Best-selling mystery author Byron Pembroke is dead. Soon after, his highly dysfunctional family gathers on a dark and stormy evening for the reading of the will. Each family member has their own reason to believe they’ll receive the bulk of Byron’s estate, but the family soon finds out that the deceased didn’t think much of them. Instead of naming an heir, Byron condensed his fortune into one mysterious object and left it to... whoever found it first! Before greedy family members are able to put together individual plans of their own, the mansion is overrun by a horde of strangers seeking shelter from the storm. And once the strangers find out about the hidden treasure, they soon join in the hunt. Who will find the treasure first? Byron’s spoiled, self-serving family members? The bickering trio of ghost hunters? The nosy news team? Or the busload of obnoxious tourists? Loaded with small parts and several small-cast, comical vignettes, this madcap mystery gives every actor a chance to be part of the madness! Additional info: Directors welcome actors of all experience levels, whether you are brand new or a veteran thespian! Production dates: August 3 at 7 PM August 4 at 2 PM If interested, please apply.
