"The Tempest" Summer Show Looking for Actors

Butler, PA, United States
ID: 230342Exp: 6/4/2023
Description:

The company is holding auditions for the summer production of "The Tempest" and looking for actors, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: For twelve years, Prospero, the exiled Duke of Milan, has been living on a remote, uninhabited Mediterranean Island with only his daughter, Miranda (a young girl who has grown up seeing no other human being but her father), Caliban (the son of the island’s former ruler, a witch named Sycorax), and Ariel (an “airy spirit” who has served as Prospero’s servant). Prospero has learned the magical arts through deep meditative study, and uses his supernatural powers to exert his authority and influence events. At the play’s beginning, he causes a tempest to overtake the surrounding waters, shipwrecking the enemies responsible for his exile. The boat’s passengers are scattered, and the state of the island is thrown into chaos as murder plots, drunken foolery, and love-at-first-sight become the order of the day. But by the end, Prospero has righted the chaos and resolved all conflict, and asks the audience's indulgence to set him free. Likely Shakespeare's last independent play, The Tempest is a fitting capstone to the Bard's prolific career. Additional info: The theatre is Non-Profit Organization. The Tempest will be performed in the evenings on July 28, 29 and 30. It will also be performed on August 4, 5, and 6. The Tempest is a very musical play, and actors who sing are encouraged to audition. Those auditioning are encouraged to review the sides before auditioning. Please see the attachment for sides.
