Casting Actors who Sing for Production of "Nevermore"
Actors for regional premiere of "Nevermore: The Imaginary Life & Mysterious Death of Edgar Allen Poe". ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. See more info below. About the project: Dark and dazzling, bizarre and beautiful, Nevermore – The Imaginary Life and Mysterious Death of Edgar Allan Poe is a unique gothic opera about one of the world’s most famous and fascinating writers. Through its use of stunning stagecraft, underscored verse, and haunting music, Nevermore blends fact and fiction to create a fascinating and moving theatrical experience that is difficult to describe, but impossible to forget. A literary rock star of his day, Poe struggles with tragedy and addiction, poverty and loss, yet produces some of the world’s most original, visionary and enduring literature before dying in unexplained circumstances at the age of 40. At once gorgeous and grotesque, Nevermore explores the events that shape Poe’s character and career, blurring the line between fact and fiction–after all, as Poe himself writes, “All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.” Additional info: WARNING: This show is written closely to the life of Edgar Allen-Poe. There are heavy themes of death, horror, and also scenes involving his marriage and wife (who was his cousin and also under the age of 18 when they wed). Some of these subjects may be triggering and they will have warning up on the ticket site and on audition forms. There will be no callbacks for in person auditions. REHEARSAL SCHEDULE Rehearsals begin Tuesday, September 2nd. Rehearsals run Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings from 6:30pm-9:30pm. Tech Week starts October 6th PERFORMANCE DATES Friday, October 10th, 2025 @ 7:00PM Saturday, October 11th, 2025 @ 2:00PM Saturday, October 11th, 2025 @ 7:00PM If you are interested, please apply.
