Alchemy Auditions - WVSHAKES SCHOOL TOUR - Romeo & Juliet - WED 7/23/25 - 7PM - Prepare a monologue!

Alchemy Theatre, The West Virginia Shakespeare Festival & The West Virginia Humanities Council present auditions for the 2025 On The Road With WVSHAKES School Tour - Shakespeare's ROMEO & JULIET!

Rehearsals will be in the evenings, HOWEVER - you must have Friday morning availability in September and October to tour to schools in WV, OH & KY. Most of these days the tour will be finished by Noon, so you could still have a half-day at work, if that helps.

This special one-hour version of R&J has been crafted specifically for touring. Our tours use only a few props, set pieces and small costume pieces, as everything must be able to be moved quickly and transported easily.

If bringing Shakespeare to kids across the Tri-State appeals to you, please audition!

All you need to do is prepare a monologue. We are even offering a free monologue workshop at Alchemy on Monday, July 21 at 7PM with visiting director and Shakespeare scholar Richard Perloff. He can help you get ready for the audition!

Rehearsals will more than likely be from 8PM to 10PM on weeknights and performances will be between 8AM and Noon on Fridays in September and October.

These are PAID positions!

We hope you'll join us!
