Auditions for Cyrano DeBergerac, will be held December 20, 21starting at 7 pm at the Campus Theatre, located at 214 W. Hickory Street in downtown Denton. The Denton Community Theatre production is directed by Brad Speck.

This romantic tale, set in the 1600's, tells of the brilliant soldier and poet, Cyrano DeBergerac who, despite his intelligence and skill, believes that he can never be loved because of his exceptionally large nose. He uses his talent with words to help the handsome but tongue-tied fellow soldier, Christian, woo the beautiful Roxanne. Although Cyrano secretly loves her, he only wants to see her happy. This classic work has something for everyone - romance, dramatic sword fights, and a bit of humor as well.

Auditions are open - no appointments. A prepared monologue is recommended but not required. There will also be cold readings from the script. This production is using the Brian Hooker translation of the script. Stage combat/movement ability will also be assessed at the audition. Resumes and headshots are encouraged, but not required. If you are unable to attend the auditions, or have other questions, contact Director, Brad Speck at 940-566-8661, or by email bradleyspeck@hotmail.com.

Performances are February 5, 6, 12, 13 at 7:30 pm & February 7, 14 at 2 pm.

This is a large cast with 28 men's roles and 13 women's roles available - late teens and older. Many roles are small "juicy" parts which will require less rehearsal time - often only two to three days per week for the first three weeks. There will be 5 weeks of rehearsal total - first read through is January 2, 2010.
