East Cleveland Theater (ECT) is hosting auditions for “Frankenstein 1930”, written by Fred Carmichael.  We are seeking 2 men for this show.

 

Synopsis:

An adaptation of the classic novel by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley.  Although this adaptation was published in 1996, the play is set in the 1930s.

 

 

The Roles:

 

Grave Digger 2 / Second Man: These are two separate roles to be played by the same person.  The Grave Digger 2 only appears in Act 1, Scene 1 ... preparing a grave for a recently deceased young man.  Second Man appears multiple times in Act 2 and is a villager.


Gorgo: Gorgo has been shunned by society, and is Victor Frankenstein's assistant.  Gorgo is anxious for Victor's creation to live, as Gorgo is desperately looking for a friend.

 


Director: Michael A Lenzo

Michael is making quite a name for himself, starting off with "Dracula" in 2015, followed by "The Fall of the House of Usher" in 2016, which won Broadway World's first place award in the category Best Production of a Comedy or Drama.
