Theatre Casting Call for "Lettice and Lovage"
Performers wanted for the "Lettice and Lovage" play. Please find the breakdown below. About the project: Lettice Duffet is an indefatigable but daffy enthusiast of history and the theatre. As a tour guide at one of the least stately of London's stately homes, she theatrically embellishes its historical past. Lotte Schon, a stoic inspector from the Preservation Trust, is neither impressed nor entertained by Lettice's freewheeling history lessons. What follows is a battle to the death of all that is sacred to the Empire and the crown. Rate: Non-paid. Additional info: Callbacks: Wednesday, October 21, 7 to 10 PM. Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Open casting, with no roles pre-selected. Open to non-traditional casting, and actors of all ethnicities are encouraged to audition. Audition forms and conflict calendar must be filled out in advance. If interested, please apply.
