Join Audition for Dancer in "Murder Inn”

Manchester, CT, United States
ID: 273134Exp: 11/18/2024
Description:

Seeking actors/dancers for the "Murder Inn" play. Please see the details below. About the project: Murder Inn is set in New England, at the Barnsley Inn, a dilapidated eighteenth-century inn, which is supposedly haunted by Marco, a knife-throwing poltergeist. A group of tourists, on a tour-Ghosts and Ghouls of New England-is forced, by a storm, to make an unscheduled stop at the Barnsley. What looks to be an unpleasant and uncomfortable detour soon turns into a night of mayhem and madness as knives begin to pop up… in the most unexpected places. As the storm builds and the body count rises, the survivors try to figure out who has done it. And even more important- who’s likely to have it done to them next? Additional info: Auditions will consist of cold readings from the play. Those auditioning should bring their resume; headshots will be taken at the theater. Please dress comfortably and be prepared to move. All roles are available. Rehearsals will take place on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings beginning toward the end of November. This production will run from February 7-23, 2025 If interested, please apply.
