Set in the Regency era\, this story follows the romantic misadventures that arise from Emma’s miscalculations and the humbling lessons which come with growing up. \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nNOTE: Non-traditional casting welcome: open to all races\, genders\, and ages.  \nSome roles may be double-cast as household servants. \nMISS EMMA WOODHOUSE (F\, early 20s) An accomplished\, intelligent\, clever\, stubborn\, and sophisticated woman whose vanity lies in her confidence that she is always right. She has good intentions but also loves to play games with the lives of those she cares about. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMR. GEORGE KNIGHTLY (M\, mid 30s – early 40s) A witty\, rational\, and charitable gentleman who always maintains a sense of integrity. He is dear friends with the Woodhouse family. He is the only one that manages to stand up to Emma and eventually falls in love with her. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMR. HENRY WOODHOUSE (M\, 50s – 70s) Emma’s endlessly worried father. He is a homebody to a fault and resists any sort of change. He is a doting father to Emma and is blind to any faults she may have. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMISS HARRIET SMITH (F\, 18 + to play 17) A soft and naïve young woman who adores Emma. She is an orphan living at the local boarding school. She is uncertain in her own mind and seeks approval. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMRS. ANNE WESTON (F\, 30s – 50s) Emma’s former governess and Mr. Weston’s new wife. Her former name was Miss Anne Taylor. She is a close friend of Emma’s. She is a kind woman that essentially raised Emma and was perhaps a bit too indulgent with her. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMR. WESTON (M\, 50s – 60’s) The kind\, cheerful\, optimistic\, and easy-going neighbor of the Woodhouse family. He is the father of Frank Churchill from an earlier marriage wherein his first wife passed away. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMR. PHILIP ELTON (M\, mid 20’s) The ambitious rector of Highbury. He possesses an air of self-importance and is seeking the right marriage to climb the social ladder. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMR. ROBERT MARTIN (M\, mid 20s) A shy\, straightforward young farmer in love with Harriet Smith. He is not the most sophisticated of men\, but very capable. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMISS BATES (F\, 40s-60s) A unmarried woman who others would describe as a spinster. She is not particularly clever and she is overly talkative\, but she’s very warm-hearted. She lives in genteel poverty with her sickly mother. (Part requires a British accent.) \nJANE FAIRFAX (F\, early 20s) The niece of Miss Bates who comes to visit Highbury.  She is an accomplished\, talented\, gracious\, and beautiful young woman. (Part requires a British accent.) \nFRANK CHURCHILL (M\, early 20s) The son of Mr. Weston. He is charming\, well-mannered\, and handsome. He was raised by his aunt and is visiting Highbury for the first time. (Part requires a British accent.) \nMRS. AUGUSTA ELTON (F\, 20s-30s) Her former name was Miss Augusta Hawkins.  A vain\, superficial\, and well-to-do woman who marries Mr. Elton.

SUMMARY:AUDITIONS: BEN HUR
DESCRIPTION:AUDITIONS: BEN HUR\nTITLE: BEN HUR (A Comedy) \nAUTHOR: Patrick Barlow (based on the novel by General Lew Wallace) \nDIRECTOR: Gregory Cohen \nRUN: February 24 – March 23\, 2024 \nFridays & Saturdays 8pm\, Sundays at 2pm.

An ill-equipped and understaffed theatre company mounts a full production of the classic biblical epic made famous by the Charlton Heston film classic\, complete with chariot race\, sea battle\, stage combat\, and actors struggling with professional rivalries and offstage romances. Can this plucky band of thespians retell one of the largest stories ever told? \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nNOTE: Looking to cast wonderful character actors with imaginative minds\,  great comic timing\, and high energy physical comedy skills! \nAll ethnicities and gender identities will be considered for all roles. \nDANIEL VEIL   (M\, 20s – 40s) The owner\, producer\, director of the Daniel Veil Theatre Collective (who also happens to be the star of this production).  He is highly confident of his theatrical abilities (not so much in his ability to win the love of Crystal\, his leading lady).  He plays Judah Ben Hur\, Melchior\, and a Nubian dancer. \nCRYSTAL SINGER (F\, 20s) Pretty\, sweet\, and smart leading lady (and object of Daniel’s affections).  She plays Mary\, Tirzah\, Esther\, Ancient Slave\, Nubian Dancer\, Catalinya\, Naboth\, and Mrs. Pilate.  Ability to do a wide variety of characters and accents a necessity. (Must be comfortable with kissing Omar.) \nOMAR LORD (M\, 20s – 30s) Very good looking local weatherman/game show host type making his debut in this production and the object of Crystal’s affections.  He plays Messala\, Jesus\, Caspar\, Archangel Gabriel\, Galley Captain\, Roman Captain\, Galley Slave\, Nubian Dancer and Valentinyo. Ability to do a wide variety of characters and accents a necessity. (Must be comfortable with kissing Crystal.) \nEDGAR T. CHESTERFIELD (M\, 40s – Death) Classically trained Shakespearean actor past his prime.  He plays Balthasar\, Sarah\, Centurion/Slave-Driver\, Quintus Arrius\, and Pontius Pilate. Ability to do a wide variety of characters and accents a necessity. \n1 MALE and 1 FEMALE ENSEMBLE/UNDERSTUDY (20s-40s) These understudies will not only be understudying all the roles\, but will appear in every performance as “backstage crew that are understudies.” These will be very funny additions to the main cast. \nBEGINNING REHEARSAL SCHEDULE:\n\n\nBen-Hur-Beg.-Reh.-Schedule-V.2Download\n\n\nINFORMATION ABOUT THE AUDITION PROCESS:\n\n\nINSTRUCTDownload\n\n\nSIDES:\n\n\nCrystal-SidesDownload\n\n\n\nDaniel-SidesDownload\n\n\n\nOmar-SidesDownload\n\n\n\nEdgar-SidesDownload
