16 Jun '22

Open Auditions for "DRACULA" *Adapted by Steven Dietz from the novel by Bram Stoker* ** Directed by Mason Stewart *Dates for Auditions:* *June 22 and 23 – 6-9pm *Callbacks if Needed June 25 *Audition slots are by reservation.* Reserve Audition Slot <https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080C4DA5A62FA4F94-dracula> at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080C4DA5A62FA4F94-dracula With all the suspense and seduction of Bram Stoker’s classic novel, Steven Dietz takes audiences on a breathless and bloody thrill ride from the depths of Transylvania to the very heart of Victorian London. As Count Dracula begins to exert his will upon Van Helsing, Renfield, Harker, and the rest, they try to piece together the clues to save themselves from a hideous fate. /This production will contain elements of violence, blood, and sexuality./ *Show Dates:* September 16 – October 1, 2022 Fridays & Saturdays at 8 PM, Sunday September 25 at 2 PM AUDITION PREP: * Bring your theatrical resume (if any) * Bring a photo or headshot for the production team’s reference. * We will read from the script. * You may download and complete an audition form <https://cvlt.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/2021-CVLT-Audition-Form.pdf> in advance to save time. CASTING: * *Performers of all races, gender identities, and ethnicities are encouraged to audition (18+)* * ALL ROLES AVAILABLE. * Some actors may double as more than one character. * Chagrin Valley Little Theatre is a volunteer performance organization and does not offer contracts. ROLES: * *Mina Murray:* A smart, strong-willed, and cautious young woman. An original ‘final girl’ of the horror genre, but certainly no ‘damsel in distress’. Mina is the purest of all characters making her the most exquisite target for corruption. Close friend of Lucy. Fiancée of Harker. * *Jonathan Harker:* A young solicitor hired by Dracula to facilitate his arrival in England. Harker travels to Transylvania, is imprisoned and tortured by Dracula but escapes. Fiancée of Mina. * *Lucy Westenra:* Lucy loves life and is curious about the secrets of intimacy. Her biggest problem is having three suitors. Corrupted by Dracula, she changes from a coy, aristocratic socialite into a wanton vampire. * *Dr. John Seward:* A young doctor and administrator of Carfax Lunatic Asylum. Awkward and insecure but passionate. In love with Lucy. A man of science, he is resistant to the more supernatural explanations for the events occurring in the play. * *Renfield:* A former solicitor, manipulated and used by Dracula. Inmate at the asylum. Obsessed with eating living things (such as rats, birds, and spiders). At times he seems insane, but in fact he is trapped between his hunger for Dracula’s immortality and his fear of eternal retribution. * *Dr. Abraham Van Helsing:* A doctor and friend of Seward’s who is an authority on the mystic and occult and who eventually diagnoses the trouble surrounding Lucy. An intellectual Victorian and a superhero of sorts. * *Dracula:* Hundreds of years old but drinking the blood of the living renders him young and virile. He has great strength and the power to manipulate the minds of his victims. At times he is confident, polite, and sensual; at others he reveals pure, ruthless evil. Speaks in a non-descript Eastern European accent. * *Ensemble:* At least three additional actors to play the Vixens (the wives of Dracula), waiters, asylum attendants, maids, etc.

Synopsis: The story revolves around the relationships of three middle-aged single siblings, two of whom live together, and takes place during a visit by the third, Masha, who supports them. They discuss their lives and loves, argue, and Masha threatens to sell the house. Some of the show's elements were derived from works of Anton Chekhov, including several character names and sibling relationships, the play's setting in a country house (in Bucks County, Pennsylvania) with a vestigial cherry orchard, the performance of an "avant-garde" play by one of the main characters (as in The Seagull), and the themes of old vs. new generations, real vs. assumed identities, the challenges of a woman growing older after successes in a career that seems to be ending, the hope and carelessness of youth, intrafamilial rivalries, and the possible loss of an ancestral home. * The character descriptions below should NOT be taken as literal guidelines for casting. They offer a very broad outline to give a rough idea of character types. * Before auditioning, actors are strongly encouraged to read the play. * Roles are open to all ethnicity and gender identities. * We ask that all who are auditioning at this time read our Safety and Covid policies.
