Casting Teen Performers for "Much Ado About Nothing"
Seeking performers ages 17 and up for "Much Ado About Nothing". Play. Please see the details below. About the project: This one has it all: tension, flirtation, verbal zingers, and (relatively) amusing clowns. The beautifully drawn love-hate relationship between tart-tongued Beatrice and blustery-confirmed bachelor Benedick is more engaging to modern audiences than the supposed main plot, which hinges on an elaborate scheme of deception and vicious shaming. Additional info: Shows: Sep. 13-22, 2024 Fri. & Sat. at 7:30 p.m.; Sun. at 2 p.m. If interested, please apply.
