Theater Casting Call for "A Party to Murder" Play

Edmonton, AB, Canada
ID: 265020Exp: 7/13/2024
Description:

ONY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Seeking male and female performers for production of "A Party to Murder". See the details below. About the play: A group of mystery enthusiasts gather on a remote island for their annual Halloween themed murder mystery party. Each year, the winner of the party gets to choose whatever their prize will be. This year the winner requests particular favours from each of the other guests. As the evening goes on, bodies begin to drop. The group must scramble to figure out who the killer is…but they’re on a remote island. Which means that the killer can only be one of them… Additional information: Performance Dates: October 9th to 19th. Tech week: Sept 28-Oct 8th. CALL-BACKS (if needed): July 20th. Content Warning: violence depicted on stage as well as implied. Adultery and blackmail discussed. AUDITION REQUIREMENTS: Cold Reads: Directors will send you sides about a week before the auditions for you to review. You will be in a group with other auditioners and will be reading together. The sides do not need to be memorised but they do ask that you are familiar with them. Rehearsal Schedule: While directors may have one or two rehearsals before or during the Edmonton Fringe Festival (most likely first read and potentially a rehearsal for some table work), rehearsals will be starting in earnest the week of August 26th. Will be rehearsing 3 to 4 times a week based on need and schedules. Head shots and resumes are recommended, but not required. If you're interested, please apply.
