TDW Seeks Young Actor

TDW_VERTThe Drama Workshop is looking for a young man, around 17 or who looks young, who can act and sing tenor for their production of A 1940S RADIO CHRISTMAS CAROL. The show runs Dec 6 – 22, 2013 at The Glenmore Playhouse in Cheviot. Rehearsals will begin shortly.

The character is “Little” Jackie Sparks – not actually “little”, but young. A tenor with a high speaking voice. Having just graduated from high school, he’s 17, living with his mom in Newark, still has a Sunday paper route. He’s teased a lot, wears ear muffs and galoshes in the winter. Think a “Dennis Day” type.

Please contact Elaine Volker, producer, for more info or with any leads.

Thanks
Elaine Volker
513-235-3717 or eavolker@aol.com
