Casting Performers for "The Christmas Express" Play
"The Christmas Express" play needs cast. Please see the details below. About the project: PLAY SYNOPSIS: It’s the late 1950s and Hilda Trowbridge dreams of faraway places. She only finds tedium in running the Holly Railway Station. That is, until Leo Tannenbaum drops in out of nowhere the day before Christmas Eve. Suddenly, an old radio that hasn't worked in years springs to life, the local group of carolers begins to sound like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and the whole town gets the Christmas spirit. Coincidence? Or is Leo doing all this? Even Hilda’s assistant changes his tune when it turns out that Leo might be on the run. This leads an eccentric small town of characters to wisecrack their way to finding the true wonder of Christmas. Additional info: Those auditioning will perform cold reads from the script with other actors.
