Auditions Announced for ANGEL STREET at Beavercreek Community Theatre

Open Auditions for ANGEL STREET by Patrick Hamilton

Directed by David Shough

Monday and Tuesday, January 27-28, 2025, 7-9pm
Beavercreek Community Theatre

You need only attend one night, but are welcome at both. If you cannot attend either audition date, contact the director at davids@pbstudios.com or 937-626-2674, and we will make time or permit a video audition. Performance dates: March 7-16, 2025; Friday – Sunday. Rehearsals will generally be Monday through Thursday evenings, subject to cast schedules.

Seeking:
2 men and 3 women, plus two non-speaking police officers who appear at the end of the play. Race is not relevant to any role. All races & ethnicities are encouraged to audition.

  • Mr. Manningham – good looking, about forty-five. He is heavily moustached and bearded and perhaps a little too well dressed. His manner is suave and authoritative, with a touch of mystery and bitterness.
  • Mrs. Manningham, Bella – about thirty-four. She has been good-looking, almost a beauty – but now she has a haggard, wan, frightened air, with rings under her eyes that tell of sleepless nights and worse.
  • Elizabeth, a servant – strong, amiable, and subservient woman of fifty; loyal to Bella.
  • Nancy, a servant – a self-conscious, pretty, cheeky girl of nineteen; she much prefers the master than the mistress.
  • Detective Rough – Middle-aged, graying, active, brusque, friendly, and overbearing. He has a low warm chuckle and completely dominates the scene from the beginning.

The Play:
A 1938 play, originally titled Gaslight (and the source of the psychological meaning of that word), it had one of the longest runs on Broadway for a non-musical and was adapted into a notable 1944 film starring Charles Boyer and Ingrid Bergman in the Manningham roles, and young Angela Landsbury, in her film debut, as Nancy.

The full script is available online at
www.coldreads.wordpress.com/2020/09/15/angel-street

With the heroine in distress, the manipulative husband, and the sturdy detective here to save  the day, the play gives homage to the melodramas of the past but has more the sense of a thriller. The characters are vivid and their emotions on full display.

The Audition:
Audition sides will be available for download in early January.
British accents are required for all actors.
Please bring a resume and a list of all conflicts through March 16, 2025.

Auditions Announced for OTHERING at SSCC Theatre

SSCC Theatre will hold auditions for the spring production of OTHERING, a new, original play by Rainee Angles.

Open to community members and students, auditions will be held at 6:00 p.m. Friday, January 17, and at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, January 18, in the Edward K. Daniels Auditorium on Southern State Community College’s Central Campus, 100 Hobart Drive, Hillsboro.

OTHERING weaves together the cast and crew’s personal experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic with their poignant performance of “The Diary of Anne Frank”. Through diaries, news stories, social media, and powerful original dialogue, OTHERING explores the heightened systemic racism and societal challenges that, while not comparable in severity to Anne Frank’s world, share some unsettling similarities. This innovative performance fuses video, sound, and projections to create a compelling narrative that reflects humanity’s resilience and struggles in 2020 creating a unique and thought-provoking journey that connects past and present in an unforgettable theatrical event.

Those interested in auditioning should prepare a dramatic one- to two-minute monologue and schedule an audition slot at https://www.sscctheatre.com/auditions. Memorization of the monologue is recommended but not required. Those interested in working on available crew positions will be asked to complete an interview during the day of auditions, and should also schedule an interview slot at the same link.

If interested in auditioning or working crew, but unavailable to attend either audition date, please contact Director Rainee Angles (rangles@sscc.edu) to schedule an alternate date prior to January 17.

OTHERING will be performed April 4 – 6. For more information about available roles and rehearsal schedule, please visit www.sscctheatre.com.

THE WEDDING SINGER 
April 16 – May 11, 2025  

Music by Matthew Sklar, Book by Chad Beguelin and Tim Herlihy Lyrics by Chad Beguelin 

It’s 1985, and rock star wannabe, Robbie Hart, is New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer. He’s the life of the party until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his affection. As luck would have it, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and unless Robbie can pull off the performance of a decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever.
