Looking for Boys and Girls for "Shakespeare in the Park"

Audition for "Shakespeare in the Park". Looking for boys and girls. Please see the details below. About the project: The Comedy of Errors by William Shakespeare is a slapstick comedy about two sets of identical twins, separated at birth, who unknowingly end up in the same city years later. The confusion begins when one twin, Antipholus of Chicago, and his servant, Dromio of Chicago, arrive in Detroit, where their identical counterparts, Antipholus and Dromio of Detroit, live. Mistaken identities, misunderstandings, and a series of comedic mishaps ensue, leading to chaos, wrongful accusations, and eventual reunions. In the end, the confusion is resolved, and all is forgiven, restoring order and harmony. Additional info: The script has been adapted to reflect the prohibition era of Detroit, and we will include as many accurately historical references as possible. • The style of the show is Commedia dell’arte (think cartoon-like Looney Toons slapstick, eyes popping out, steam coming from the ears kind of comedy.) Will have a sound effects station on stage to help these moments come to life. All ages are welcome to audition, but those 18 and under must have a signed waiver approving their involvement. • Actors should prepare a one minute (preferably comedic) Shakespearean monologue or sonnet done in a comedic way. Memorization is preferred but not mandatory. Sample monologues are available upon request and provided at auditions. • Actors should come dressed to move and prepared to do a short Commedia dell’arte improvisation (such as act out stepping in gum, trying to break down a door, or moving a very heavy object.) • Actors should have their list of scheduling conflicts from May through July • Actors are encouraged to bring a resume and/or headshot, although neither is required. Callbacks will also be on April 13th starting at 2:30. If interested, please apply.
