"Death By Dessert" Play Seeks Teen Actors
Audition for "Death By Dessert" Play. Performers aged 15 and up are encouraged to audition! Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: It's dinnertime, and you're invited to a meal so good, it's to die for! In New York's Little Italy, the Donnaducces and the Duccedonnis have been feuding for a generation while operating two competing Italian restaurants that share a common wall. At rise, the building's landlord is dead at center stage, and everyone is suspect – from the old-world Italian grandmother and mafia don grandfather to the passionate chefs and bumbling waitstaff. Flashing back in time, the story is told by its victim, who alternately narrates and participates in the action. As customers in the restaurant, the audience is served a delectable meal, but they don't just sit back and watch; each table must cast their vote for whodunit! Will the murderer be ferreted out? Will the feud ever be reconciled? What are the hidden truths about what happened all those years ago? Additional info: Rehearsals will be: A minimum of 1-2 days a week at Mt Hope in accordance with the availability of the actors. Required rehearsal will depend on role and schedules and will run from 9/23 until 11/14. The Performance will be: Saturday, November 14th. Dessert will be served to patrons.
