NPT Festival Auditions

We're excited to announce our auditions for the 2012 New Players Theater Festival season! NPT will be presenting King Lear and Scapin in repertory from June 21 to August 12 2012 at Hilliard's Mill Run Amphitheater. King Lear will be directed by Kal Poole and will feature Mark Mann as Lear; Scapin (adapted by Bill Irwin and Mark O'Donnell, based on the Moliere play) will be directed by Tim Browning. We're looking for actors with good physical and/or clowning skills, and strong language abilities. We will be casting roles in both shows, as well as actor-techs for internship positions. We will also use this general audition in order to consider you for future productions. Read on for the details.

DATE: Thursday, December 29th, 7-10pm
WHERE: Cup O' Joe Community Room, 2418 E. Main St, Bexley, OH 43209
WHAT: 2-minutes, contrasting classical monologues, one comic, one dramatic
ROLES: Because of our repertory nature, we cast many actors in roles in both shows. This is the breakdown of currently available slots:

> Scapin
> Cordelia/Hyacinth
> Burgundy/Sylvestre
> Edgar
> Albany
> Actor-techs (intern positions)

MORE INFO: Rehearsals for the festival shows will begin in mid-April. All positions are compensated with an honorarium.

SCHEDULING: To schedule an audition slot, email NPTauditions@gmail.com. We will respond with an audition time for you. Please bring a current headshot and resume if you have it. In addition to your prepared monologues, you should be ready to read sides for particular roles if the director so desires.
