Casting Call for Boys and Girls for Play "Macbeth"
Auditions for William Shakespeare's Macbeth. Open to actors aged approximately 9 and up. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Please prepare a 1-2 minute monologue from a Shakespeare show of your choosing. Memorization is not required. Be prepared to read from the script. If you are unable to make it to the in-person auditions, please submit a video audition. This performance is set with an abridged script & smaller cast than typical of Shakespeare. As a result, there is a higher burden on actors as many will be cast in multiple roles. This particular performance will be set in early 1920s New York during Prohibition. See the document attached for details. If interested, please apply.
