Casting Teen Performers for "Jane Eyre" Play

High school-aged performers are welcome to audition for the "Jane Eyre" Play. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Sally Cookson’s adaptation of Charlotte Bronte’s hugely successful novel takes us from Jane’s birth through her troubled childhood with her cruel aunt, Mrs. Reed. She is sent away to grow up at the bleak Lowood School but Jane craves freedom and change. Striking out on her own, she becomes a governess at Thornfield Hall to the French ward of the mysterious Edward Fairfax Rochester. But what is his secret? Jane grows close to Rochester and they make plans to marry. However, when she discovers that his insane wife, Bertha, is kept under lock and key on the third floor, she abandons Rochester and their burgeoning love. However, after toying with the idea of becoming the dutiful wife of the devout clergyman, St John, she feels Rochester’s call in her heart and returns to find him blind amongst the ruins of his ashen house. Additional info: This February, you will perform Jane Eyre at Lincoln Center-alongside Broadway performers and a live orchestra in a one-night-only staged concert performance. Students will learn a short song on-site and demonstrate harmony and ensemble singing. This is a high-level opportunity that requires confidence, musicality, and teamwork. If interested, please apply.
