Women in History has just celebrated its 30th year and is looking to expand its talent base by hiring new actresses. Auditions will be scheduled throughout the months of September, October, and November…and will require those interested to prepare at least 10 minutes of a memorized, first person portrayal of a notable American woman. We realize this is a larger than normal time commitment, but it’s important to note that each of our actresses researches, writes, and creates her own program. We offer significant support both in crafting the presentations and in creating the costumes so that they are as authentic as possible. All of our performers are paid. This year we’re especially looking for women of color…with a particular focus on performers passionate about telling the stories of African American, Native American, Asian, Middle Eastern, and Hispanic women. Women in History offers live and virtual performances of over 70 different women from the past 400 years who’ve made a significant contribution to American history, some famous, some infamous, some whose names have been ignored far too long. Our portrayals represent women from a vast array of backgrounds and professions. We’ve had the privilege of sharing these stories both in and out of state…including schools, universities, libraries, historical societies, civic groups, retirement communities, corporate, science, and medical groups, prisons, military bases, and Chautauqua Festivals. Please take a moment to learn more about our organization by visiting our website, womeninhistoryohio.org. Send an email of interest to amcevoy13@gmail.com. Allow a week for a reply with more detailed information for your audition. Thank you so much for your interest! We look forward to hearing from you.
