“One of the greatest pleasures I find in the arts is to be astonished at human ability...Such a spectacle of gratuitous talent incites me, not only to praise the artist, but to praise God for giving such ability to human beings.” Gene Veith, State of the Arts

You Can't Take It with You
AUDITIONS

It’s that time again - time to dust of your acting skills and get ready to audition for Mingo’s fall play, “You Can’t Take It with You”.  Auditions will be Wednesday, August 31 and Thursday, September 1 from 3:10-5:00 in Mr. Madden’s room (218).  At the audition, you will be performing cold reads of short selected scenes from the play.  You only need to attend one day of the auditions.  Auditions are open to all secondary students.  The cast consists of 9 male roles (plus 3 sides that could be either male or female) and 7 female roles.  You can read a breakdown of the show here. I would encourage you all to take a look at the character breakdown before auditions so that you know a little bit about the characters you are portraying.   I’m excited about doing a great classic comedy this fall, and I hope to see many students at the auditions!
