The Theatre Ensemble at Meadow Brook Theatre announces auditions for children for roles in their 2010 production of A Christmas Carol. Auditions will be held at the theatre in Wilson Hall on the campus of Oakland University on Saturday morning, September 11. School-aged children who will not have reached their 14th birthday before October 26(1st day of rehearsal) may audition.
Children interested in auditioning should arrive at the lobby of the theatre starting at 9 am to sign in. There are not individually scheduled audition appointments. They will be reading from the script in groups onstage. No prepared pieces, singing or dancing required at this audition. While not necessary, bring a copy of your resume, if you have one. Please do bring a photo that you do not need returned. It need not be a professional headshot; a school picture is fine.
Rehearsals for A Christmas Carol will be after school and on weekends with Monday as a day off. Performances with many schoolday matinees begin November 16 and end December 23. Each child’s role will be double-cast with each actor scheduled for approximately half of the 45 performances.
