Auditions: "A Christmas Carol" (male roles only)

Posted: Oct 17, 2019

We will be holding open auditions on Sun, Oct 27 and Mon, Oct 28, at 7pm, for the three male roles in our upcoming holiday special event production of “A Christmas Carol.” This is not your traditional production! From the author of the West End hit “The 39 Steps,” Patrick Barlow, comes this wacky retelling of the Charles Dickens classic. This thrilling adaptation uses only five(!) actors to bring some of Dickens’ most beloved characters to life. From Scrooge and Tiny Tim to Bob Cratchit and Mr. Fezziwig. Barlow’s “A Christmas Carol” uses nothing more than some simple props, fresh physicality, and the power of imagination to convey this timeless story of redemption. Witness Ebenezer Scrooge’s transformation from a stingy miser to a man who generously celebrates the spirit of the season all year long, in this fast-paced, highly theatrical adaptation. Directed by Brian Davis Note: the two female roles are being reprised from last year’s production. We are only looking to cast the three male roles. Various British accents are required, and two of the actors need to be able to play multiple roles of varying ages. Please plan to arrive at least 10 minutes early for sign-in and paperwork.
