Lawrence Arts Center’s "The Snow Queen" (Sept. 19)

Lawrence Arts Center’s The Snow Queen has dance and acting opportunities for all ages, experience levels

Auditions for the Lawrence Arts Center’s annual holiday production will be held on Sunday, September 19 from noon–5:00pm. 

After a two-year absence, The Snow Queen is being presented once again.  Revisited by the directors, this new version has a sleeker script with all the beauty and charm of Hans Christian Andersen’s strange tale of love and loyalty.  The production will feature a cast of over 100 community and professional actors and dancers.  It includes an original script by Ric Averill, unique choreography by Deborah Bettinger and a live orchestra performance conducted by Jeff Dearinger.  Performance dates for The Snow Queen are December 10–12 and 17–19.

Auditions for dancers and actors are scheduled for Sunday, September 19th with times scheduled as follows for different age groups.                  

Ages 5–8, 12–1:30pm
Ages 9–11, 1–3:30pm
Ages 12–18, 3–5:00pm
Adults, 3:30–5:00pm

No prepared audition material is necessary. Everyone who auditions will read at least once (except the youngest group) and/or do some creative dramatic exercises, learn a dance combination, and possibly do some additional reading.  Call backs, if needed, will be held on Monday, September 20.  There is a participation fee of $90 for all student performers, although financial aid will be available and auditioners should not let price prevent them from auditioning.

Interested parties should contact the Lawrence Arts Center at 843-2787 with any questions.
