Auditions for "A Midsummer Night's Dream"

 


Oddfellows Playhouse Teen Repertory Company announces auditions for Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream on Wednesday, September 15 or Thursday, September 16, 6 - 9:30 pm. Auditions are open to all young people ages 14 - 20. All who audition and can commit to the rehearsal and production schedule will be cast.

Auditions, rehearsals and performances will be held at Oddfellows Playhouse at 128 Washington Street in Middletown. You only need to attend one of the two audition evenings, but please Pre-register for the evening that you wish to come by emailing info@oddfellows.org or calling (860) 347-6143.

Rehearsals will be Mondays and Thursdays, 6 - 9 pm starting September 20. Performances are November 11 - 13 and 19 - 20. There will be rehearsals every day the week of November 8.

Once you have pre-registered we will send you an audition form for you to fill out electronically. Please arrive before 6:30 pm for your audition, and plan to stay for the entire 2.5 hours. You do not need to prepare anything, but dress to move and plan to work and play barefoot. We will work with masks on when indoors as long as State and City protocols require it. All spaces at Oddfellows are equipped with high-volume air purifiers, and we will endeavor to maintain a safe environment for indoor physical work.

A Midsummer Night's Dream will be directed by ARTFARM Artistic Director and renowned Shakespearean actress and director, Marcella Trowbridge. This will be a fun, physical production of one of the greatest comedies ever written. Tuition for the Teen Repertory Company is $300, but financial aid and work-study are available. No one is turned away for lack of funds.
