Benevolent Theatre
Season General Auditions

Pay: Stipend

Description:

Benevolent Theatre's mission is to provide a creative outlet for local artists, and aide in community outreach, growth, and education by bringing awareness to the organizations and individuals that have inspired these artistic works. All work showcased by the company will come from local writers and artists, and will address current social issues, and help develop programs that find solutions.

Benevolent Theatre will be hosting Season General Auditions for our first production, Nicky Silver's Fit To Be Tied, directed by company member Sean Murphy. As well as two other productions to be announced at the auditions. Seeking Actors and performers of all types and ages for principal roles, musical roles and ensemble roles. Audition dates are November 14, 15 and 16.

Fit To Be Tied is a full length comedy with 3 men and 1 woman. It is an absurdist, and somewhat outrageous farcical comedy. However, in both the writing and production, beneath the madcap exterior, there is great sadness.

Multi-Role Cast Includes:

3 Male

- 2 males approximately 22-28yrs

- 1 male 40-50yrs

1 Female 42-50yrs

Time Commitment:

Specific dates will be discussed in detail at auditions. However for the first production rehearsals start the second week in December and there is a break for holidays before resuming rehearsals in January. Performances Open first weekend in February and run through Mid March.

Material To Prepare:

For auditions, please prepare 1 contemporary monologue (preferably comedic) and 1 verse & chorus of a song not to exceed 3 minutes. If you are not a singer, please prepare a monologue only.
