THERE ARE FOUR SCHOOL MATINEES: January 28, 29 and February 4, 5 at 10:30 AM. **This is a reduced rehearsal period, partially because of the length of the script and partially to best use the time of our artists. As such, you should be prepared to memorize lines very early in the rehearsal process. Scripts for memorizing will be provided directly after casting is complete so actors can familiarize themselves with the text during the month of December and come to January rehearsals ready to roll. Please do not audition if you cannot commit to quickly memorizing content for this condensed rehearsal period.** NON-TRADITIONAL CASTING WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR ALL ROLES Please prepare a comedic monologue (bonus points for Shakespeare or something else in verse!) Those wishing to audition can make an appointment for an audition time by signing up online HERE. <https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F4EABAB23A4FCC34-50478605-catinthe> (Role descriptions listed on signup link).
