Auditions Announced for Village Players’ BLOOD RELATIONS

vp_logoVillage Players announces AUDITIONS for BLOOD RELATIONS at the Fort Thomas Woman’s Club (Street Level)!

Sunday, January 18, 2014 at 7:00 PM
Monday, January 19, 2014 at 7:00 PM

The play begins ten years after the Fall River murders: On a cool Sunday afternoon in the fall of 1902, an actress from Boston is visiting her friend, the infamous Miss Lizzie Borden. Miss Lizzie has spent the last ten years keeping a low profile since her acquittal of the murder of her father and stepmother.

Miss Lizzie proposes a game in which The Actress is to play the role of Lizzie, while the real Miss Lizzie paints the background of her home and family life, as well as taking on the role of the housemaid Bridget O’Sullivan. Miss Lizzie fills The Actress’ mind with images to guide her performance, as we witness pivotal moments leading up to the August morning in 1892 when Mr. and Mrs. Borden were found with thirteen and thirty-two axe blows to their heads.

The cast will consist of three actors and four actresses, 20s to 60s:

Men:

  • Harry, Lizzie’s step-uncle
  • Andrew Borden, Lizzie’s father
  • Dr. Patrick, the Irish doctor

Women:

  • Miss Lizzie
  • The Actress
  • Emma, Lizzie’s older sister
  • Abigail Borden, Lizzie’s step-mother

BLOOD RELATIONS will be staged April 17-25, 2014.

Auditions will consist of readings from the script. Bring resume and known conflicts Feb. 15-April 26.
Headshots welcome, but not necessary.
