Children Theatre Casting Call for "Our Town" Show

Indiana, PA, United States
ID: 572407Exp: 8/6/2024
Description:

Seeking kids ages 10 and up for "Our Town" Show. Please see the details below. About the project: Described as “the greatest American play ever written,” Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning ”Our Town” tells the story of a small town, Grover’s Corners, in order to tell us the story of every town, the whole world over, through three acts: “Daily Life,” “Love and Marriage” and “Death and Eternity.” Narrated by a stage manager and performed with minimal props and sets, Wilder delivers universal truths about what it means to be human through the simple daily lives of the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry, and eventually – in one of the most famous scenes in American theatre – die. Additional info: No previous acting experience is necessary. Auditions consist of reading a monologue and/or scenes from the script with other auditioners. No preparation is necessary. PRODUCTION DATES: September 13, 14, 15 and 20, 21, 22. Performances on Fridays and Saturdays are at 7:30 pm and Sundays at 2:30 pm. The cast must plan to arrive at least 1 hour prior to show time. REHEARSALS: August 12th - September 12th. A blank calendar will be available on your audition form for you to list any conflicts you have during the rehearsal period. We will do our best to accommodate all conflicts. All Tech Week (September 8th-12th) rehearsals and Performances are MANDATORY. If interested, please apply.
