The "Nevermore" Play Looking for Performers
Casting directors are holding auditions for the "Nevermore" Play and looking for actors, please see the details below. About the project: What keeps a family together? The story of Nevermore follows the Evermore family fifteen years after the disappearance of the patriarch's wife, Lenore. When Lenore’s sister returns to the Evermore mansion fifteen years after Lenore’s disappearance, she witnesses the strained relationships throughout the household. Lenore’s shadow is cast over the family on a day to day basis, but Lenore’s sister is determined to unmask the patriarch as Lenore’s killer - even if it means thrusting the family even deeper into the tragedy that broke them. Additional info: Performance date: Saturday, August 19, 2023 Actors must have the entire weekend free in case there are enough entries to expand the festival to two days. Rehearsal days will be Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights, built around the availability of the cast, and will likely not be three nights a week. Tech Week: Saturday, August 13th – 18th (determined by the show’s needs) and is mandatory. Please download the audition form and sides from the attachment.
