The St. Joseph’s Players of Yucca Valley are holding open auditions for their fall 2016 and spring 2017 productions. Reporter Rebecca Havely has all the details…
Auditions are set for Saturday, August 13, at 6 p.m. Two award-winning directors Rebecca Havely and Abe Daniels will be casting. Daniels’ will direct the uproarious comedy “Kitchen Witches” by Caroline Smith. The two female leads are two rival TV cooking show hosts in their late 30’s to mid-50’s. One has a son Stephen and a female stage manager is on the TV set. Daniels show will begin rehearsals October 1 and perform weekends from November 12 through December 4.
Havely’s show choice is Aaron Sorkin’s court-martial drama, “A Few Good Men.” She has pre-cast the role of Lt. Col. Nathan R. Jessep with Abe Daniels. The cast calls for over a dozen men and one woman. However, she may cast women in some of the officer roles. You may choose to prepare a monologue or read from the scripts that will be provided. “A Few Good Men” will rehearse beginning January 16, 2017 and run March 4 through March 26.
If you would like to volunteer back stage for either production, please attend. Auditions will be held at St. Joseph’s Church, 56312 Church Street in Yucca Valley.
