The sexy, salacious jazz age sizzles in 1920s Chicago, where small-time show girl Roxie Hart becomes the toast of the town after murdering her lover in cold blood. But fame is fleeting for the hot jazz slayer of the moment, and Roxie and smooth-stepping lawyer Billy Flynn manipulate everyone around them in a high-stakes tap dance into the headlines and away from the hangman’s noose.

Actor Audition for CCPA’s DRACULA

CCPAWe have one role to fill for DRACULA. One audition will be held this Saturday, July 13th at 1pm. If you want to audition, please contact Jennifer Perrino jenniferperrino@covedalecenter.com.

Where/When: Sat. 7/13 1pm. At the Covedale Center for the Performing Arts

Role of: DR. SEWARD – an alienist of about 55; intelligent, but a typical specialist who lives in a world of text books and patients, not a man of action or force of character. He is also Lucy’s father.

DRACULA October 17 – November 10, 2013
By John L. Balderston, Hamilton Deane & Bram Stoker

Lucy Seward, whose father is the doctor in charge of an English sanitorium, has been attacked by some mysterious illness. Dr. Van Helsing, a specialist, believes that the girl is the victim of a vampire, a sort of ghost that goes about at night sucking blood from its victims. The vampire is at last found to be a certain Count Dracula, whose ghost is at last laid to rest in a striking and novel manner. Pure escape and great fun.

Greg Procaccino, Director; Laura Weil Production Stage Manager
