USC’s Theatre South Carolina will hold auditions for its spring plays from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Nov. 12, and from 1 to 4 p.m. Nov. 13. Callbacks will be held at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 14.
Auditions will be held in the Booker T. Washington rehearsal studios, located on Wheat Street between Pickens and Sumter streets. To audition, sign up at the Department of Theatre and Dance, locate on the fourth floor of Longstreet Theater beginning Nov. 5.
Actors should prepare two, one-minute monologues, one from Shakespeare and another from a contrasting, contemporary play. Sections from scripts for the spring plays will be provided at callbacks.
The spring plays are The Illusion, by Tony Kushner; Translations, by Brian Friel; and A Midsummer Night's Dream, by William Shakespeare. Some copies of The Illusion and Translations will be available for checkout from the department offices.
Auditions are open to the public. USC employs nontraditional casting, using ethnic minority actors, women actors, and physically challenged actors in roles where these elements are not essential to the story of the play.
