HWP Announces Auditions for A KLINGON CHRISTMAS CAROL

20130608-223912.jpgBa’Qa’! This is a translation of the Dickens classic holiday tale. Scrooge has no courage, nor honor. The ghosts are coming to help him fix that. Because Klingons are what they are, expect stage combat, singing, and a lot of guttural sounds. Entering its 4th year in Chicago, this show has garnered national and international press attention. And now this one of a kind production is coming to the Cincinnati area!

Performances will be held at the Art Academy of Cincinnati in Over-The-Rhine on December 11-15 and 18-22 of 2013. Rehearsals will begin October 14th and run until the show’s opening on weekday evenings with some weekend afternoons. The show is being produced by Hugo West Theatricals, and directed by Mike Hall with fight direction by Jonn Baca. There will be a stipend paid based off a percentage of the total profits earned from ticket sales.

Auditions are scheduled for August 31st from 12 PM to 6 PM, with a possible callback date of September 1st from 12 PM to 6 PM. Auditions will be held at The Carnegie in Covington, KY. The address is 1028 Scott Blvd, Covington, KY 41011.

Please dress for movement. (Klingon apparel is not necessary and strongly discouraged.) Audition will consist of readings from the script (in English), a quick fight sequence, and a language-lesson. Actors will audition in groups of 20 for a 75 minute time block. You will be required to stay the entire 75 minutes. Please also bring a headshot and resume.

To sign up for an audition slot, please email hallmiked@yahoo.com with the subject “Klingon Audition.” Walk ups may be considered but will be placed toward the end of the line.
