- A NOTE ON SCHEDULING AND COMMITMENT -

Some roles in this show will require a larger time commitment than others. Please let us know if you are interested in a smaller or larger commitment Rehearsals will be 3-4 nights a week, though very few, if any, actors will be called every night. As the show dates get closer, more time and energy will be required from the cast.

Below are the character descriptions and suggested monologues for each character. If none of these options speak to you, you may bring in something else to audition with. This monologue should be from a Shakespeare play and no longer than 12 lines. It is strongly encouraged that all monologues are memorized.
