Come prepared with a short monologue of your choosing. You will be asked to read scenes from the script of the character(s) you're auditioning for.
The PDF version of the script may be found here
The script has initially doubled and tripled roles. Depending on the turnout, some of these roles may be split to accommodate more actors. Smaller, non speaking ensemble roles may also be filled for crowd scenes, also depending on interest.
Actor 1 .......... Scrooge
Actor 2 .......... Bob Cratchit, Marley
Actor 3 .......... Nephew [Fred], Christmas yet to come
Actor 4 .......... Gentleman 1, Christmas Present
Actor 5 .......... Gentleman 2, Fezziwig, Mr. Haversham
Actor 6 .......... Mrs. Cratchit
Actor 7 .......... Niece, Christmas Past
Actor 8 .......... Young Scrooge, Joe (20-25 years), Thomas
Actor 9 .......... Peter Cratchit, Boy-in-the-street (15-18 years)
Actor 10 .......... Fan, Martha Cratchit (18-22 years)
Actor 11 .......... Tiny Tim, Boy Scrooge
Actor 12 .......... Belinda, Belle’s Daughter
Actor 13 .......... Dick Wilkins, Belle’s Husband, Balladeer
Actor 14 .......... Woman 1, Fiancee (Belle), Polly
Actor 15 .......... Woman 2, Mrs. Fezziwig, Mrs. Haversham
Also needed: backstage crew, sound crew, lighting crew, props, costumes.
ETA: Seeking musicians to play live music during the performance - a fiddler is ideal, but if more step forward with different instruments, then there can be an ensemble. May be asked to dress in costume and perform their music on stage, in-character.
Performance dates of the show are the 15th, 16th of December.
Cast will be announced within 48 hours of auditions. A rehursal schedule will be provided soon, thereafter. Performers will be given November 22 - 26 off for Thanksgiving, but will be asked to continue to review their lines.
Actors will taught to dance for the Fezziwig Christmas Party scene. An example of the type of dancing that will be done may be seen here.
Students taking Kurt Wagner's drama class are required to participate in some capacity.
Inquires and questions may be made to this post, or to Kurt Wagner, privately. Thank you, and break a leg!
