Grosse Pointe Theatre will hold open auditions Saturday, April 5, from 10 a.m. – noon, at 315 Fisher Rd., in Grosse Pointe, MI, for its upcoming 12th Annual Take Ten: Ten-Minute Play Festival. The group is looking for diverse actors to fill many adult roles of various ages for the ten-minute plays.
Participants do not need to be experienced actors; they just need to have a desire to learn, be convincing in their portrayal, and be willing to work creatively as a team to produce a believable story – all in ten minutes. Those cast will need to become members of Grosse Pointe Theatre.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the magic of live theatre in an intimate setting with a team of dedicated people working together to present a wonderful theatre experience for participants and patrons alike.
Rehearsals will begin in April and continue through the opening of the Festival. Specific rehearsal schedules will be determined by each play’s director. Performance dates will be Thursday, June 12, at 7 p.m.; and Friday, June 13, at 7 p.m. Actors must be available for tech week and all performances.
Please visit www.gpt.org/auditions/ to fill out/submit the audition form. Forms will also be available at auditions on April 5. Additional questions may be sent to playfestival@gpt.org.
