Key City Public Theatre schedules auditions

PORT TOWNSEND — Key City Public Theatre invites actors and actresses of all ages to its fall general auditions at 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 4, and 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 5.

The regional theater company, based at the Key City Playhouse in downtown Port Townsend, is casting the first four productions of its 2012 season, including the 16th annual Playwrights’ Festival, a comedy titled “The Art of Dining” by Tina Howe, the musical “Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris” and the summertime Shakespeare in the Park production of “Twelfth Night.”

Scripts are available at the Port Townsend Library, 1220 Lawrence St., and the Jefferson County Library, 620 Cedar Ave. in Port Hadlock.

Auditioners are urged to read the scripts in advance and to bring one to three minutes of prepared material.

Available hour before

Scenes from the plays will also be available an hour before the auditions start at the playhouse at 419 Washington St.

Participants should also be ready to have their pictures taken, and they should bring performance resumes and head shots if possible.

Those who come to the general auditions are eligible for casting in any Key City presentation throughout the 2012 season, including PT Shorts and the WordPlay reading series.

Those who can’t attend the tryouts but who want to be part of the theater community can phone Angela Amos in the Key City office at 360-379-0195 or email angela.amos@keycitypublictheatre.org.
