Audition info: Dramasoc Christmas Production
All is not well at the North Pole – Santa has been accused on gross sexual misconduct and the media descends to try to get the full story. Each of Santa’s reindeer come forward to give their take on events – what happened with Vixen in the toy workshop? Why did Rudolph lead the pack that fateful foggy night? What is Mrs Santa’s problem? And has Santa been very very naughty?
THE EIGHT: REINDEER MONOLOGUES will be performed from Tuesday 1st to Saturday 5th December, with 5 – 7 shows. This is a dark, funny and very topical play that is bound to offend at least someone.
We are looking for 8 actors – 5 men and 3 women of various ages, shapes and sizes.
As the pieces are monologues there will be lots of one-on-one work, and all rehearsals will be scheduled to accomodate personal schedules and unversity exams.
email Erin at pharmacopaeia@gmail.com for an audition time between 12 and 3 on Sunday 18 October. If you can’t make this time, get in touch anyway and we’ll sort something out. Auditions are cold reads, no preparation necessary.
