What To Expect At Auditions

Hello!

Thank you for your interest in being a member of Act Too Drama Club’s “Team Clue”. Please read through the following information before filling out your application/audition form and entering your conflicts from now until the show (November 15 + 16).. Both potential cast and crew members need to fill out the application on Cast98.com. Applications MUST be completed on or before auditions (September 9 or 10).

If you would like to be considered for this production (cast or crew) you MUST join the Remind group. Text @lshclue24 to 81010 or join through the Remind app. I highly recommend your parents/guardians also join this group. This will be how I communicate with you on a daily basis.

TENTATIVE REHEARSAL CALENDAR: This one is just for your convenience. You still need to fill out your specific conflicts on your audition form. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1g9nI_eYPWhZw3kiOF2R-HZ6GpWU94ZIvLQkHKNDu8PM/pub

Please note that all cast and crew are required every rehearsal and performance in November.

Please confirm that you have reliable transportation for this commitment, rehearsals + performances. It is important that you arrive and are picked up ON TIME.

Please contact me, Mrs. Walt with questions: jwalt@spartan.limacityschools.org or through Remind by texting @lshclue24 to 81010.

Are you interested in being cast?

We will be casting 9th-12th grade Spartans for our Fall Play: Clue.

Auditions will be Monday + Tuesday, September 9 + 10 (3:30-5:00pm) (choose 1 day) with call backs on Thursday, September 12 (3:30-5pm) in the LSH Joe Henderson Auditorium. You need to attend the whole audition/callback time. Unlike recent shows, not everyone who auditions will be cast in this play and therefore, not everyone will be called back on Thursday. If you’re not cast this time around, I’d still highly recommend being involved on crew.

Auditions are in-person, not by video. (You need to audition with a short (1-2 minute-ish) comedic monologue (a speech given by one character) that is well rehearsed. I highly recommend attending the audition workshop on Tuesday, September 3 (3:15-4:15pm) in the Theatre to help you feel more prepared and confident in your audition.

A more specific rehearsal schedule will be created based on your availability that you enter on your application.

I highly recommend watching Clue, the movie, the play on YouTube or reading the play before your audition.

Available Roles

Wadsworth - (Male Identifying) A traditional British butler in every sense: uptight, formal and “by the book.” He is the driving force in the play.
Yvette - (Female Identifying) A sexy, French Maid, with her own secret aspirations. (Also plays THE REPORTER in the final scene).
Miss Scarlet - (Female Identifying) A dry, sardonic D.C. Madam who is more interested in secrets than sex.
Mrs Peacock - (Female Identifying) The church-going wife of a Senator. A bit batty, neurotic, and quick to hysteria.
Mrs White - (Female Identifying) A pale, morbid, and tragic woman. Mrs. White may or may not be the murderer of her five ex-husbands.
Colonel Mustard - (Male Identifying) A puffy, pompous, dense, blow-hard of a military man.
Professor Plum - (Male Identifying) An academic Casanova who woos women with his big … brain.
Mr Green - (Male Identifying) A timid, yet officious, rule follower. He’s a bit of a klutz and awfully anxious.
