[NEohioPAL] AUDITIONS – THE REAL VALKYRIES OF VALHALLA – Beck Center Youth Theater

[Sarah Clare]

Beck Center for the Arts Youth Theater will be holding auditions on October 2 & 3, 2021 for:


THE REAL VALKYRIES OF VALHALLA
Written and Directed by Rachel Spence


Join us for this action-packed comedy based on Norse Mythology. Odin, Loki, Thor and other "marvel"-ous characters tell their origin stories through humor, battles, and a little bit of Ragnarok and Roll. Featuring Beck Center's pre-teen actors, these myths will have you laughing all the way to the fjord. Why is Thor's hammer Mjolnir so heavy? Why is Freyja's chariot led by cats? What's up with all these silent j's? These Viking and Valkyrie vignettes will be the most fun you can have during an apocalypse.
