Casting Teen Performers for "The Little Prince" Show
Seeking performers ages 16 and up for "The Little Prince" Show. Please see the details below. About the project: "The Little Prince" may have returned to his own tiny planet to tend his Rose and look after his Sheep, but after a short enchanted time, he returns to us and comes alive on stage. This play/musical tells the story of a world-weary and disenchanted Aviator whose sputtering plane strands him in the Sahara Desert and a mysterious, regal "little man" who appears and asks him to "Please, sir, draw me a sheep." During their two weeks together in the desert, the Little Prince tells the Aviator about his adventures through the galaxy, how he met the Lamplighter and the Businessman and the Geographer, and about his strained relationship with a very special flower on his own tiny planet. The Little Prince talks to everyone he meets: a garden of roses, the Snake, and a Fox who wishes to be tamed. From each, he gains a unique insight which he shares with the Aviator: "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly." "What is essential is invisible to the eye." At length, both the "little man" and the Aviator must go home-each with a new understanding of how to laugh, cry, and love again. Additional info: Note: Play Reading Event will take place on Saturday, November 23rd, 1-3 pm. Love this literary classic and can't get enough of it? Have no idea what the story is but want to audition anyway?? Reading plays with friends, new and old, is your jam??? Well then come join show director, Katie Bovee for a "just-for-funsy" read-through of The Little Prince! Directors will split the characters up based on who is present and read through the play (run time is 70 minutes). After the initial read-through, directors will take some time to notice themes, unpack characters, and pick apart a few favorite scenes, lines, and the space in between! If interested, please apply.
