Cast List

Cast list – THERE’S A BOY IN THE GIRL’S BATHROOM

This was an extremely difficult decision – we are truly fortunate to have so much regional talent!  I could have easily cast the show twice – I am truly sorry that I couldn’t use all of you!

I’d also like to remind the youth that FOOTLIGHTS, our youth acting troupes, are accepting new members and this Saturday is the deadline for joining!  This is the elementary and middle school troupes performance trimester – so everyone who is in the troupe will have the opportunity to perform.  You can call the theatre box office to register or show up Saturday.  Check out our website for more details or call the box office.

If you are on the cast list – you need to email April at acochran@mhtplay.com to indicate acceptance of your role.  First rehearsal will be Tuesday, January 19 at 5:00 in the Studio Theatre classroom.  Scripts and rehearsal schedules will be given out on that day.

Once again – thank you to ALL of you who auditioned!  We are very grateful for your interest and hope to see you at future auditions!  Open auditions for WEDDING BELLES (4 adult women, one teen girl) are Feb. 16 & 17, and auditions for CINDERELLA (large cast of all ages) are also Feb. 16 & 17.

General Audition Notes

Auditions are usually held on a Monday and Tuesday evening. Adult shows audition at 7 PM. Youth shows audition at 5:00 PM. Auditionees may check out a perusal script 1-2 weeks ahead of time to become familiar with the play. At the auditions the director will assign parts at random and have auditionees stand onstage and read these scenes looking for a sense of character, expression, diction, vocal projection and general acting ability. They might also be asked to participate in some simple theatre games or improvisations. Some auditionees from Monday and Tuesday might be called back for an additional audition. If you are auditioning for a musical you should sing one of the songs from the show. If you are unable to attend the scheduled audition date please contact the theatre for an alternate audition time. Perusal scripts for all shows may be checked out for three days with a $10 Youth script refundable deposit and a $10 -$25 Adult script refundable deposit.
