Hershey Area Playhouse announces auditions for the final show of its 2014 season, Charles Dickens' classic A Christmas Carol.
The production will take its inspiration from the subtitle that appears on most of the early publications of the tale: A Ghost Story of Christmas. Dickens' timeless tale is full of spooks and shades and is as much ghost story as it is a tale of Christmas redemption.
The Playhouse will be looking for a cast of approximately 20 adults and 10 children to play multiple roles as it weaves this classic tale. Most members of the cast will be playing multiple roles over the course of the show, so actors and actresses have a chance to be a part of an ever-changing ensemble. A list of roles and descriptions is posted on the Hershey Area Playhouse website at
www.HersheyAreaPlayhouse.com.
Those who wish to audition should prepare a short monologue. This does not need not be memorized and can be as simple as a nursery rhyme for younger auditioners. Actors may also be asked to read short scenes from the script.
Auditions will be held for adults and teens only on Friday, September 19 from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, for children on September 20 from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, and again for adults and teens from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM on September 20. The show will run from December 4-7 and 11-14, 2014.
