ST. PHILIPS PLAYERS ANNOUNCES AUDITIONS FOR GODSPELL
St. Philips resident theater company, St. Philip's Players, announces auditions for the musical GODSPELL. The classic musical
is that of a series of parables, based on the Gospel of Matthew and Luke. The parables are interspersed with a variety of modern music set to lyrics with the passion of Christ ending the performance.
The open casting call includes all 10 roles, including Jesus, John The Baptists/Judas, and 8 male and female featured performers. Each person auditioning should come prepared with one song, not from the show, but rather highlighting their individual talents musically. Come prepared with sheet music, and also be prepared to sing a Capella. Those auditioning will also be asked to read from the script from select scenes, sides provided, and will take part in a brief dance/movement audition.
Auditions will be held on August 13th and 15th. Thursday, August 13th from 6:30 - 8:30pm, and Saturday August 15th from 2:00 - 4:00pm. Production dates will run in mid October. Those auditioning should come prepared to provide all known conflicts and have the month of October available for the show. Auditions, rehearsals and performances are all at St. Philips auditorium, directly across from the church. Parking is available in the main parking lot.
St. Philips players will also be hosting a 'getting to know us' meeting from5:00 until 6:00pm on Thursday, August 13th, prior to auditions. All are welcome and especially the non performing interested members. We are seeking to fill all production roles, costumers, set painters and workers, and stage crew. So come and talk to us. We will train all who have little or no experience.
