The cast list for this year’s fall play, The Auditioners, has been released. The Auditioners is a short comedy play, written by Doug Rand. Congratulations to the following students – Sydnee Jackson, Theresa Hamilton, Hailey Morley-Guenther, Mary Cordray, Brett O’Neal, Liberty O’Neal, Trent Turner, Jesus’ Holguin, Kaylee Hammond, Caleb Ditch, and Irene Mason.
Synopsis: This audition was supposed to be simple: prepare one classical monologue and one contemporary monologue. But when this challenge is taken up by a beauty queen, a stand-up comic, a slam poet, an Esperanto-speaking mime, and a parade of other crazies -- most of whom insist on doing the same Lady Macbeth piece very badly -- what's a director to do?
The play will be performed at the High School on Saturday, November 16, at 7pm, with a matinee performance on Sunday, November 17, at 2pm.
