Casting Teen Performers for Upcoming Plays

Geneseo, IL, United States
ID: 580920Exp: 2/9/2025
Description:

Seeking actors ages 17 and up for "The Tell-Tale Farce" and "The Fox on the Fairway" Shows. Please see the details below. About the project: "The Tell-Tale Farce" It's 1848, and Edgar Allan Poe is just coming off the spectacular success of "The Raven." Unfortunately, it's only earned him a grand total of nine dollars. So when a wealthy dowager commissions him to write her a poem for the vast sum of one hundred dollars, he leaps at the chance. Only problem: the man who shows up to write the poem isn't Poe, he's Poe's mailman, and he's on a quest to woo the dowager's spinster niece. Playing Poe is harder than it looks, though, especially when your mustache keeps falling off, the teenage grand-daughter of the house is lusting after you, and Poe's arch-nemesis, Rufus Griswold, just happens to be dropping by to settle old scores. A freewheeling, door-slamming farce with a touch of the macabre. Run dates: April 3-6 & 10-13, 2025 "The fox on the fairway" A tribute from Ken Ludwig to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox On the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp pulling the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of the Quail Valley Country Club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously-paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers’ classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with... golf. Run dates: July 10- 13 & 17-20, 2025 Additional info: All directors plan to have those auditioning read excerpts from the script. For "The fox on the fairway"-Comedic timing is a plus. No accents are required but not prohibited. If interested, please apply.
