Readers Theatre Plus sets auditions for Wednesday

Directors Ric Munhall and John Cory will conduct the auditions at 6 p.m. today, Aug. 26, at the Lapis Lazuli Studio, 803 Carlsborg Road, Suite D, Carlsborg, across the street from the Carlsborg Post Office.

 

Readers Theatre Plus (RT+) announces auditions for its October production of original short- and/or lesser-known plays.

Directors Ric Munhall and John Cory will conduct the auditions at 6 p.m. today, Aug. 26, at the Lapis Lazuli Studio, 803 Carlsborg Road, Suite D, Carlsborg, across the street from the Carlsborg Post Office.

If you have ever thought about getting involved and performing onstage, there will be roles for actors in lots of scenes with plenty of lines, Readers Theatre Plus representatives say. Other roles may require only one scene and a couple of lines. It’s quite likely some actors will be asked to be in more than one play and in a few of the scenes, actors will serve as the “supportive background.”

All the plays are short, lighthearted comedies.

A few of the plays and roles are:

“Afternoon in the Park” — Two people on a park bench on an autumn day. Roles for two characters in their 60s or 70s.

“The Something Special Coffeehouse” — Tensions percolate as two executives try the patience of a coffee shop cashier. Five roles for adults of any age.

“The Cinderella Story “ — As many as eight roles, big and small.

The show will be presented Oct. 2-4 and Oct. 9-11 at the Guy Cole Convention Center, in Carrie Blake Park.

As with all RT+ productions, this show will benefit a Sequim nonprofit organization.
