Casting Call for Teens for "Romeo & Juliet" Play
Seeking performers ages 16 and up for the "Romeo & Juliet" Play. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: In the shadows of the East Texas pines, whispers of danger echo across the land. The year is 1925, a time of clinking glass and clandestine deals, where the roar of engines on dusty backroads signals another forbidden shipment. Two families, their hatred as strong as the liquor they brew, vie for control of a Prohibition-fueled empire. By day they smile and trade in public, but by night the darkness conceals betrayals, bloodshed and secret meetings. In this word of hidden passions and deadly feuds, a forbidden love emerges, threatening to upend everything. This October we invite you to the moonlit stages of Shakespeare in the Park for a tale of love and loss set against the intoxicating haze of East Texas' roaring twenties. Additional info: Actors between 16 - 18 years of age may audition and will require a parental release form if they are offered a role in the show. If auditioning for a role that includes singing, please prepare a short song selection in a country or bluegrass style Directors are also actively searching for instrumentalists to play guitar, banjo, mandolin, double bass, fiddle, and harmonica.
