Rosenberg, TX – Cast Theatrical will be holding auditions for A.R. Gurney’s comedy of manners, The Dining Room, on February 5 and 6 from 7-9 p.m. at Cast Theatrical Company, located at 1909 Avenue G in Historic Downtown Rosenberg.
Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script, as well as movement and voice exercises. All roles are available and no experience is required.
A.R. Gurney has set the show in the dining room of a typical well-to-do household, and a mosaic of interrelated scenes – some funny, some touching and some rueful – ultimately coalesce into a theatrical experience of exceptional range, compassionate humor and abundant humanity.
“This is a fun show which showcases different scenarios, years and people around the same type of dining room table,” said Stephanie Phillips, director for The Dining Room.
Rehearsals are typically three times per week for most weeks on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday between 7 and 10 p.m.
Performances will be held April 5 – 21; Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 pm, Sunday matinees at 2:30 pm. and on Thursday, April 11.
Casting requirements are for a minimum of 6 actors; 3 women and 3 men, who are capable of playing a large range of ages and demeanors with multiple costume changes. People of all ages and ethnicities are welcome to audition.
Cast Theatrical Company is the longest running volunteer community theatre in Fort Bend County, founded by a small troupe of amateur actors in 1989, whose vision was to provide easy access to theatrical productions for the enjoyment of the local community and visitors to Rosenberg.
