Auditions Announced

We're looking for a lot of knights, peasants, dancing girls, demigoddesses, vorpal bunnies, black knights, enchanters and a grail. But seriously, we probably will cast seven male principal roles, most of whom will play multiple parts as they did in the original movie and on Broadway; a female principal role with a strong pop singing voice; and an ensemble of 4-5 men and 4-5 women. All auditoners should be at least 17 years old. Auditioners should prepare 16 bars of music and bring their sheet music so they can be accompanied by piano. They should also be able to move and dance a bit, speak in an English accent and be silly. It's a comedy! Join us for what promises to be a hilarious time for all concerned!

Auditions will be at The Weekend Theater on Saturday, May 25, at 10:00 am, and again on Sunday, May 26, at 6:00 pm. You only need to attend one of these times. During the auditions, first everyone will sing the song they have prepared. Then we will have readings from the scripts. Scripts will not be available before the auditions. At some time during the auditions, the choreographer will take those who want to dance into the lobby for dance auditions.

Rehearsal and performance dates are as follows:

SHOW REHEARSALS PERFORMANCES
Monty Python’s Spamalot June 8 – July 11 July 12 – July 28


Performances are on Friday and Saturday at 7:30 pm and Sunday at 2:30 pm. It is possible that we will add some Thursday night shows if tickets sell very well.

If you cannot attend all dress rehearsals, brush-ups and performances, please respect your fellow actors and tell us, so you will not be cast. But remember that you are still welcome to audition, as it is always good to practice auditioning!

If you have any questions, please feel free to email the director, John Haman, at JohnKHaman@gmail.com
