Auditions for Julius Caesar

OAMV - This summer, an independent company called Open Arenas Mt. Vernon Production Company (with some help from Mt. Vernon-Lisbon Community Theatre) will be staging Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. The company is led by Grant Freeman, who will direct the production. Auditions will be held May 29 and 30 at 7:00 at Heritage Hall (2nd floor of the Lisbon Library, 101 East Main Street in Lisbon).

OAMV is looking to cast Julius Caesar with about 15 actors of both sexes, ages ranging from 17-60. This will require some double-casting. In addition, Brutus will be cast younger than tradition suggests (17-25), and Cassius will be played by a woman. Performances are July 26, 27, 28 in the District Auditorium in Mt. Vernon.
