Auburn Area Community Theatre (AACT) Open Auditions for “Joe Dipietra's Over the River and Through the Woods”

Audition Information
Open Auditions will be held for a staged reading of Over the River and Through the Woods by Joe DiPietra. This offers a wonderful opportunity for more seasoned performers, as well as newcomers to the stage. A staged reading (from scripts in hand) requires fewer rehearsals, because memorization is not required. Rehearsal attendance will be important, as there will only be 8-10 rehearsals. No rehearsals are scheduled for Thanksgiving week. Characters include Nick, the 30-something grandson (who endures dinner with both sets of Italian grandparents every Sunday, where he is plied with food, but can't get a word in edgewise,) and his 30-something blind date Caitlyn. The Grandmothers, Aida and Emma are fussing, loving, cooking and infuriating. Gramps has been having minor car accidents ("Its okay. Nobody was killed."), and Nunzio is full of stories. "Tengo Famiglia!" they remind Nick. "This is Family!" Character Requirements: 3 males, 3 females. FREE to participate!
