ID: 576393Exp: 12/2/2024
Description:

Searching for girls ages 17 and up for "Pride And Prejudice" Play. Please see the details below. About the project: There is little hope for the four Bennet sisters beyond “ensnaring” a wealthy future husband, but Lizzy dreams of more than the schemes and games of courtship. A young woman with a bright mind and free-spirit, she is determined to avoid the trappings of a loveless marriage while laughing at the foolish antics of others. When she meets the solemn Mr. Darcy, she immediately judges him to be all that she detests: proud, arrogant, rude and so without civility that she can hardly endure his presence. Lizzy comes to discover, however, that first impressions may not be all that they seem and that she must learn the true characters’ of others before jumping to harsh conclusions. Additional info: Auditions will consist of reading from the script – sides will be provided. British dialect is encouraged but not required. Headshots and resumes are welcome but not mandatory. Directors will have audition paperwork for you to complete upon arrival. Please bring a list of any schedule conflicts you might have, from December 9, 2024, to February 20, 2025.
