Casting Performers for "A Christmas Carol" Play
Looking for male and female performers for the "A Christmas Carol" Show. Please see the details below. About the project: Ebenezer Scrooge is haunted by the ghosts of Jacob Marley, Christmas Past, Christmas Present, and the Spirit of Christmas Yet to Come. Faced with his own mortality and the evil results of his misanthropic, miserly ways, Scrooge is redeemed and reconciled with his nephew and his neighbors. This is a faithful adaptation of the beloved Christmas story that Dickens hoped would “help open the hearts of the prosperous and powerful towards the poor and powerless”. Additional info: Performances December 5 - 21, 2025 Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Scenes will be handed out at the auditions. A 1-minute monologue is encouraged but optional. And be ready to sing some classic carols! (You don't need to prepare a song, but there will be singing.) Actors may attend one night or both nights of auditions. If you are interested, please apply.
