NETDue to a family illness, Actor’s and Playwright’s Collaborative and New Edgecliff Theatre are seeking to cast a replacement for the role of Sergeant MacDougal in the upcoming production of SOLDIER’S CHRISTMAS..

The Christmas Truce of 1914 receives a rare dramatic interpretation in the world premiere production of SOLDIER’S CHRISTMAS, playing December 12 – 21 at Northern Kentucky University’s Corbet Theatre. Produced by Actors & Playwrights Collaborative with New Edgecliff Theatre, SOLDIER’S CHRISTMAS is written by Philip Paradis and directed by Robert Allen.

Inspired by The Christmas Truce of 1914, Soldier’s Christmas is set in Belgium in late December 1914, and presents the story of how British and German soldiers met in the middle of No-man’s-land, negotiated a truce, and celebrated Christmas together during a temporary ceasefire.

The character is a Scottish Sergeant in His Majesty’s Army during WWI.  The ability to do a Scottish brogue is requested. This is a paid position.

XACT Announces Auditions for I HATE HAMLET

xactI HATE HAMLET
Directed by Al Yarcho

Open Auditions Monday and Tuesday Nov 17 & 18 at 7pm
Cold readings from the script.

Auditions are held at the Xenia Area Community Theater, 45 E. 2nd St., Downtown Xenia

3 Men & 3 Women are needed plus backstage and technical volunteers.

THE STORY: Andrew Rally seems to have it all: celebrity and acclaim from his starring role in a hit television series; a rich, beautiful girlfriend; a glamorous, devoted agent; the perfect New York apartment; and the chance to play Hamlet in Central Park. There are, however, a couple of glitches in paradise. Andrew’s series has been canceled; his girlfriend is clinging to her virginity with unyielding conviction; and he has no desire to play Hamlet. When Andrew’s agent visits him, she reminisces about her brief romance with John Barrymore many years ago, in Andrew’s apartment. This prompts a seance to summon his ghost. From the moment Barrymore returns, dressed in high Shakespearean garb, Andrew’s life is no longer his own. Barrymore, fortified by champagne and ego, presses Andrew to accept the part and fulfill his actor’s destiny. The action becomes more hilarious with the entrance of Andrew’s deal-making friend from LA, spouting the laid-back hype of the Coast and offering Andrew a fabulous new TV deal worth millions of dollars. The laughs are nonstop as Andrew wrestles with his conscience, Barrymore, his sword, and the fact that he fails as Hamlet in Central Park.

Performances January 30 through February 8
