BRATTLEBORO — The Vermont Theatre Company announces auditions for an upcoming production of William Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. Auditions will be held on June 4, at 4 p.m., at the Hooker-Dunham Theater and Gallery, 139 Main St.
Performances of The Winter's Tale will be held Friday through Sunday, Aug. 5–7 and 12–14.
When the paranoid King Leontes locks up his wife and exiles his infant daughter, the ramifications of his monstrous acts are felt across years and kingdoms. The Winter's Tale combines elements of tragedy, comedy, realism, and fantasy to create a story that still resonates with audiences today.
This performance was rescheduled from its initial dates in February. Most of the show is cast, but there are several major roles available including Leontes, Polixenes, Florizel, and Paulina. All are welcome to audition. Actors must sign up to audition using the Audition Form found at vermonttheatrecompany.org. All actors must bring proof of vaccination and a mask.
For further information (including if you are unable to attend the audition time), email the director at shannondelaneyward@gmail.com.
