Talent Wanted for Summer 2024 Staged Reading Series
The company is holding auditions for Summer 2024 Staged Reading Series, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: "The Trial of Katharina Kepler" In 1621, Johannes Kepler, the father of modern astronomy, is called to his birth town to defend his mother in a trial for witchcraft. As the trial progresses, his own scientific work is called into question as heretical. Can he save her? Can he save himself? The play resonates with current themes of oppression, oppression of women, retrograde anti-science beliefs, nonsensical but serious accusations. Performance: Friday, Aug. 23 8 p.m. Rehearsals the evenings of Aug. 21 and 22. "Sherlock Holmes and the Mystery of the Missing Mystery" Sherlock Holmes has been at the top of his game for years now. And he’s put away all the biggest criminals of London’s underworld. But now, he’s getting bored. And the books aren’t selling so well, without a worthwhile villain to go up against. So when Sherlock’s publisher decides to create a crime spree for Sherlock to solve…. It really seems like a great idea. But things quickly run off the rails as Sherlock and his friends end up in over their heads, and many past literary exaggerations become exposed. This comedic take on the Sherlock world is meant as a romp for both young and old audiences, whether they are fans or entirely unacquainted with the Sherlock Rogues Gallery. Performance Tuesday, Aug. 27, 8 p.m. Rehearsals Aug. 25, 26 evenings Additional info: Auditions will be via cold read of provided sides, possibly in conjunction with other actors. Please apply if interested.
