Auditions for New Play Fest Five Friday-Saturday

Coralville - City Circle Acting Company of Coralville will hold auditions for their original production, New Play Festival Five.

Auditions will be held Friday and Saturday, January 28 and 29 at 7pm at the Iowa Children’s Museum in the Coral Ridge Mall, 1451 Coral Ridge Avenue. Callbacks will be held February 4th.

New Play Festival Five is coordinated by Joshua Beadle, with individual scenes produced by a number of area directors. The pieces in the Festival were selected from over 50 submissions and represent local and national playwriting talent. These six short scenes range from drama to comedy and from the sublime to the absurd.

Actors who are unable to attend are encouraged to contact the director by emailing joshua@citycircle.org. Rehearsals will begin in January, 2011. Performances of New Play Festival Five will be held at the Iowa Children’s Museum Theatre, Coral Ridge Mall, March 4-6.

Performers of all ages, races, and physical types are encouraged to audition. Directors are also seeking two older actors (50s to 60s) and two younger actors (early teens). No preparation is necessary – actors will be asked to do cold readings from provided scripts. Information on specific scenes is available at www.citycircle.org. Copies of scenes are available by request at the same email.
