Casting Decisions
Those chosen for the cast will be notified no later than Thursday September 10, 2015.
We hope that everyone understands that, in any audition process, the directors and producers are looking for the best fit in each role, and that, inevitably, some will not be chosen for a role, or for the role they desire. If that should be the case, we hope that your audition experience is still a good one (we will do our best to make it so), and that you will perhaps join us in another equally important capacity in this production.
Retreat and Rehearsals
After the play is cast, there will be a half-day retreat on Saturday September 12th from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm, during which we will have a first read-through and scripts will be handed out.
Rehearsals will begin on Monday, September 14th, and will continue on Monday and Thursday evenings and Sunday afternoons until Tech Week (November 7th through 12th), and the performances. There will also most certainly be a few Saturday rehearsals called as we near the production dates.
