Auditions for Fall Play & Winter Play 2023
Fall Play: 12 Angry Jurors Winter Play: Failure: A Love Story Audition Date: Tuesday, September 5 Callbacks: Wednesday, September 6 See AUDITION PACKET for monologues and details. In order to audition for these shows, you must submit a digital audition during the two week audition window referenced above. Only current freshman-juniors can audition. The audition includes:
Fall Play: 12 Angry Jurors Synopsis: Following the closing arguments in a [modern] murder trial, the 12 members of the jury must deliberate, with a guilty verdict meaning death for the accused, a [Chicago] teen. As the dozen jurors try to reach a unanimous decision while sequestered in a room, one juror casts intense and contagious doubt on key elements of the case. Personal issues soon rise to the surface, values & prejudices are revealed, and conflict threatens to derail the delicate process that will decide one boy's fate. Winter Play: Failure: A Love Story Synopsis: By the end of 1928, all three Fail sisters will be dead -- expiring in reverse order, youngest to oldest, from blunt object to the head, disappearance, and finally consumption. Tuneful songs and a whimsical chorus follow the story of Nelly, Jenny June, and Gertry as they live out their lives above the family clock repair shop near the Chicago River before their time unexpectedly runs out. A magical, musical fable where, in the end, the power of love is far greater than any individual's successes or failures. |
