About the Play... The University Playhouse presents an extraordinary journey for both children and adults! Two years ago, Meg's father vanished while working on a secret government project. Then one dark and stormy night, the strange and mysterious Mrs Whatsit arrives with a secret of his whereabouts. On the wings of a fantastical adventure, Meg, her brother Charles Wallace, and friend Calvin are transported through time and space on a mission to rescue their father from a dark and distant planet. Can they save their father from the evil forces that hold him prisoner and make it home before their mother realizes they've gone? 

 

Auditions: Mon., Sept. 17, 6:45-10:30 p.m.; Performing Arts Center Studio Theatre 

 

Auditions are open to all interested parties at the university and/or in surrounding communities. Eight or more actors will be cast in this company to play multiple roles!

 

 Requirements: Auditions will be held in five-minute, pre-determined time slots. Each actor must sign-up for a designated time-slot in advance on the Theatre Callboard in the Performing Arts Center! All theatre majors will present two, memorized, contrasting, one-minute monologues; cold readings will be made available for non-majors if they prefer. Each person auditioning should be prepared for the director to briefly work with him/her during the reserved time-slot as well if she so desires. Please arrive at least fifteen minutes before your designated audition time to fill-out paperwork. Bring your calendar and fall class schedule with you to auditions so that you may list all rehearsal conflicts on your audition form. Scripts are currently available for twenty-four hour checkout in the Department of Mass Media, Communication and Theatre main office (PAC #101); please read the play before attending auditions if you wish to be considered for casting. 

 

Callbacks will consist of additional cold readings from the script/creative exploration exercises (dress prepared to move!)/acting work with the director. Callbacks will be held on Tuesday, September 18 from 7:30-10 p.m. in the PAC Studio Theatre; Callback Interviews will take place in twenty-minute time slots during the days on Wednesday, September 19 and Thursday, September 20 in the director's office (times to be arranged individually at a later date.)
