Upcoming Audition: December 2 and 3
February 2022 Workshop
To open its fourth season, The Forge Theater Lab will be conducting an in-person workshop of short plays and monologues that tell stories about living through a pandemic. This workshop, directed by Charlene Kennedy, will begin rehearsals the week of January 17 and culminate in a public performance on February 25 and 26.
An open audition is being held to cast actors at Fitchburg State University on:
Thursday December 2 from 7:00 to 9:00 PM
Friday December 3 from 7:00 to 9:00 PM
This workshop will include several short plays and monologues with roles spanning a range of ages and genders. Actors of all races, ethnicities, nationalities, religions, genders, sexual orientations, ages, and types of ability are encouraged to audition.
The audition will be held at the Wallace Theater for Performing Arts in the McKay Building (B Entrance) at Fitchburg State University, 67 Rindge Road, Fitchburg, MA. Parking is available in the McKay Front lot (with a blue sign) in front of the B Entrance.
Actors can arrive any time between 7:00 and 9:00 either evening and will be seen on a walk-in basis. All actors will be asked to cold read scenes from the plays. A prepared piece is not required.
Rehearsals will be scheduled around the availability of the actors cast. At the audition, actors will be asked to list their availability from January 17 through February 26.
Masks are required inside all buildings at Fitchburg State University. (Actors will have the option to remove their mask temporarily while reading sides while they are socially distanced on stage.) To limit the spread of illness, if you are experiencing COVID symptoms or have recently been in close contact with someone with a case of COVID, please stay home and email us instead. Per the policy of our host university, all auditioners will be asked to sign a contact tracing form to attest to lack of recent COVID symptoms or close contact.
If you are unable to attend this audition in person because of COVID precautions, but would still like to be considered for casting, please email us at theforgetheaterlab@gmail.com by December 3 with your headshot and acting resume. You may also attach or link to a video recording of yourself performing a contemporary monologue that is less than three minutes long.
