Prenzie Players Auditioning For ‘Coriolanus’
Prenzie Players is announcing auditions for The Tragedy of Coriolanus directed by Jeremy Mahr.
Rome is on the edge of ruin: a recent famine has the people ready to revolt against the state, meanwhile a neighboring enemy is mobilizing to attack. At the center of these struggles is Caius Martius Coriolanus, Rome’s best soldier who has aspirations to move his battlegrounds into the political arena. Coriolanus endeavors to stop Rome’s enemies, and to gain the support of the common people when he steps into a role for which he is unsuited.
Come join the production of this tragedy about war and politics; loyalty and pride; revenge and betrayal.
There are 12 roles available for this ensemble focused show. Every role, except Coriolanus, is doubled and everyone gets to use a weapon in battle. Actors from 17 to 70. The roles may be cast
non-traditionally in regards to gender and ethnicity. Special need for a smaller ensemble role with the ability to play military drum cadences.
Auditions are Wednesday and Thursday, January 4th and 5th from 6pm to 8:30pm; Saturday
January 7th from 1pm to 3:30pm; and callbacks Sunday January 8th from 1pm to 4pm. All at the
