Auditions Announced for ALMOST, MAINE at Springboro Community Theatre

SCT_logoAnnouncing Springboro Community Theatre Auditions for ALMOST, MAINE by John Cariani.

7pm on Monday, January 13, 2020 and Tuesday, January 14, 2020.

Director: Sara Bortz
Assistant Director: Scott Madden

​Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script (available upon request). Resumes and headshots are appreciated, but not required. Auditioners do not need to be there for both nights of auditions, but are welcome to come to both.

Please provide a list of all known conflicts between January 13th and March 8th, including weekends. Rehearsals will be 3-4 days a week M-Th from 7-9:30pm, with possible extended hours and a 5th day if needed in the last 2 weeks of rehearsal. Set build will take place on the weekends, and all actors are encouraged to help.

ALMOST, MAINE is a sweet romantic comedy that inventively explores the mysteries of the human heart. On one deeply cold and magical Midwinter night, the citizens of Almost — not organized enough for a town, too populated for a wilderness — experience the life-altering power of the human heart. Relationships begin, end, or change beyond recognition, as strangers become friends, friends become lovers, and lovers turn into strangers. Propelled by the mystical energy of the aurora borealis and populated with characters who are humorous, plain-spoken, thoughtful, and sincere, Almost, Maine is a series of loosely connected tales about love, each with a compelling couple at its center, each with its own touch of sorcery.

​Available roles include:
Male: Pete, East, Jimmy, Steve, Lendall, Randy, Chad, Phil, Man & Dave
Female: Ginette, Glory, Sandrine, Waitress, Marvalyn, Gayle, Marci, Hope & Rhonda

A diverse cast is desired and encouraged to audition. We are looking for actors who can play ages 18-50, with most characters appearing between 25 and 40. This show will utilize double casting, with 4-7 actors playing multiple roles. This is a great chance to showcase your range of emotions and comedic timing.​

Show dates are February 28, 29, March 6, 7 at 8PM, March 1 and 8 at 2PM.

​Contact Sara Bortz at sekrobinson13@gmail.com with any questions.

Show Synopsis: 
James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim take everyone’s favorite storybook characters and bring them together for a timeless, yet relevant, piece… and a rare modern classic. The Tony Award-winning book and score are both enchanting and touching.

The story follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King’s Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.

One of Sondheim’s most popular works, Into the Woods is a musically sophisticated show with the opportunity to feature actors adept at dark comedy.
