Audition “Much Ado About Nothing” – at Magenta Theater
January 27, 2020 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm UTC-7
FreeAudition “Much Ado About Nothing” –at Magenta Theater, Mon., Jan. 27th 6:30pm
“Much Ado About Nothing!” is a Shakespearean favorite, and Magenta Theater’s intent to bring it to the Vancouver stage ‘with a twist’ should interest both Shakespeare aficionados and those who claim to not be fans of the playwright.
What’s it about? Beatrice and Benedick are adamant in their mutual dislike, while Claudio and Hero are deeply in love. The two stories take an unexpected course when their world is shattered by a scheming malcontent who makes a shocking accusation. Throw in some “helpful” friends and relatives against the backdrop of WWII Europe and you have the ingredients for a comedic romp, with a hint of romance and betrayal.
Auditions for the 20 roles and understudies will be held Monday, January 27th at 6:30pm at the theater
Magenta Theater embraces non-traditional casting. English accents will be used where applicable. Ages are fluid but age appropriateness will be considered. 18+ Adults, unless pre-approved.
