Description:

The company is holding auditions for "The Lady Demands Satisfaction" Show and looking for performers, please see the details below. About the project: When a young maiden, who has never touched a sword, learns she must defend her inheritance in a duel, she struggles with a milksop suitor, a servant girl posing as a Prussian fencing master, a Prussian fencing master who thinks he is there to marry her, a stodgy lord and her domineering aunt - the finest blade anywhere - to save her house and lands. Like all classic farces, everyone gets the ending they deserve in unexpected ways. However, will the lady be satisfied? Additional info: Your audition will consist of Cold reads and a Fight audition. Please bring headshot and resume. For your Fight audition wear (or bring) a set of clothes that you can move in. Also bring water if needed (there is a water fountain on site). Performances are early October, rehearsals begin August 9th in Spring TX. A complete calendar will be available at auditions. Please be prepared to mark down any/all conflicts you may have.
