Teen Actors Needed for "Blithe Spirit" Play Audition

Auditions Open for Teen Actors for the Play "Blithe Spirit." See the details below. About the project: A smash comedy hit in London and New York, this much-revived classic from the playwright of Private Lives concerns fussy, cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine, who has remarried but finds himself haunted (literally) by the ghost of his late first wife, Elvira. Clever, insistent and well aware of Charles’ shortcomings, Elvira is called up by a visiting “happy medium,” the eccentric and flighty Madame Arcati. As everyone’s personalities clash, Charles’ current wife, Ruth, is accidentally killed. She “passes over” and joins Elvira, allowing the two “blithe spirits” to haunt the hapless Charles into perpetuity. Additional info: Doors open at 6:45 PM. Performances: September 19, 20, 21 (matinee), 26, 27, 28 (matinee), October 2, 3, 4 Callbacks will be held by invitation only on Wednesday, June 25, if needed.
