The company is holding auditions for the December production of "A NICE FAMILY CHRISTMAS" and looking for actors, please see the details below 

About the project:
It's Christmas Eve, and a young newspaper reporter on the bring of being fired has been assigned a last-chance story about a typical family Christmas - his family's Christmas. He goes home to his recently widowed mother, his crazy uncle, his eccentric grandmother, and his battling siblings and their neurotic spouses, who provide no shortage of material. One by one, we learn each family member's secrets, problems, and dysfunctions, and when they learn that he's writing an article with some very personal family information, the fruitcake hits the fan. The question is, will the magic of Christmas bring this family back together?

50+ (looking at all ages - can age up with make-up.) Greedy, crotchety miserly man through most of the show who is taught the true meaning of Christmas and becomes a kinder, happier human being.

Ebenezer Scrooge

Mid 30s on up. Kind affable man who deeply loves his family, is loyal to Scrooge and who knows what the true important things in life are.

Bob Cratchit

Scrooge's nephew. A sweet, kind man who loves Christmas. He is the son of Scrooge's beloved sister Fan. Scrooge is his last remaining relative and he loves him as the last living reminder of his mother. He genuinely believes Scrooge is not as bad as everyone else in London believes.

Fred

50+ (looking at all ages, can age up with make-up) Scrooge's partner who died seven years before the beginning of the play. He is cursed to roam the world, seeing the plights and miseries of man and being unable to do anything about them because he is a cursed ghost. He takes pity on Scrooge and does not want him to share his fate, so he arranges for Scrooge to have his experiences with the three spirits.

Ghost Marley

A magical being who is part of nature and can travel back through time. They show Scrooge the Christmases of his past.

Spirit of Christmas Past

A magical being who is the physical embodiment of Christmas. Mostly jovial, and happy, this character has moments of deep sadness and anger when witnessing the ignorant, thoughtless cruelty of humans to one another.

Laundress

Cast Needed For Production Of "A Christmas Carol"

"The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" is looking for performers. Please see the details below.

About the project:  
Beth Bradley’s church’s Christmas pageant is predictable every year -- the angel choir wears too much lipstick, the shepherds are all in their father’s bathrobes, the minister’s son is permanently cast in the role of Joseph -- hardly “four-star entertainment.” But when seasoned and authoritative pageant director Mrs. Armstrong breaks her leg, it is up to Beth’s inexperienced mother Grace to step in. The timing couldn’t be worse, as the rambunctious Herdman children, a rough and tough group of siblings from the wrong side of the tracks, descend upon the pageant, lured by the promise of free dessert at Sunday school, and determined to win all the lead roles for themselves. The Ladies’ Aid Society members are beside themselves with disapproval, all the shepherds quit because Gladys Herdman “hits too hard”, the show is briefly re-titled “Revenge at Bethlehem”, and the church catches on fire. But Beth and her community watch in surprise as the same old Christmas story is rejuvenated by the creativity, energy, and unexpected sincerity of a misunderstood young family. Mary Robinson’s The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, based on her novel of the same name, is a widely beloved Christmas tale, warm and incredibly funny, full of characters both relatable and utterly unique. The large cast and age range make this show a community favorite, in which a varied, multi-generational group of performers can come together.

Additional info:
No experience is necessary.
This show will be performed on December 8-11, 2022.  

If interested, please apply.
