AUDITIONS NOTICE

Iron Mountain Stage Company is happy to announce auditions for “A Christmas Carol” and “Auntie Scrooge” - a double dose of radio plays to be presented together this December. Bring your vocal acrobatics to auditions! Can you create multiple characters/voices? At auditions it will be important to demonstrate the creative range of your voice.

Directors Patty Sullivan and Linda Gerdes will hold auditions for “Auntie Scrooge” on two days: Saturday, September 14th from 10:00 am - 12:00 pm and Tuesday, September 17h from 7:00-9:00 pm. Both rounds of auditions will be held in the main building of The New Weis Center for Education, Arts & Recreation.

Performance dates are tentatively scheduled for December 1, 5, 6, 13, 14 and 15. Actors will not need to memorize their lines.  Scripts will be used during the performance as they would have been during a radio show in a studio. Actors may be asked to voice multiple characters across both stories.
