Urgent! "Miracle on 34th Street" Show Needs Actors

Danville, IN, United States
ID: 199534Exp: 10/5/2022
Description:

Auditions for "Miracle on 34th Street" comedy play. Actors needed. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Please see the breakdown below. About the project: "This is a tale that we want to believe in, that creates a world we seem to desperately desire, free of the blatant commercialism that surrounds us, where love and decency and generosity of spirit are their own rewards. What we want Christmas to be all about, really.” So writes the Santa Cruz Sentinel of this most heartwarming holiday story. By chance, Kris Kringle, an old man in a retirement home, gets a job working as Santa for Macy’s. Kris unleashes waves of good will with Macy’s customers and the commercial world of New York City by referring parents to other stores to find exactly the toy their child has asked for. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy’s vocational counselor, who plots to have Kris shanghaied to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital, Kris ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl’s belief in Santa. In a dramatic decision, the court confirms Kris as the true Santa, allowing Susan and countless other children to experience the joy of childhood fantasy." Additional info: Please bring known conflicts for October and November. You do not need to prepare anything. Be prepared to read from a scene from the script provided by the director. Only attend one evening please. Plan to spend the evening at Auditions. The show will be presented December 8-11 (Thu-Sun) and 15-18, 2022 (Thu-Sun). Rehearsal information will be handed to you at auditions. When applying, please include your information.
