As each pilgrim shares their story, a colourful world of memorable characters is brought to life through humour, drama and imagination. Characters: The play involves a very large ensemble of characters, so almost everyone should expect to play multiple characters, and participate in group scenes. Therefore the auditions will involve group work. For those wishing to audition for a larger ‘pilgrim’ or host part, there will be a short solo ‘storytelling’ audition, which will involve reading and performing a monologue. This will be given out closer to the time to registered auditionees, but we do not expect it learnt. Audition Evening – Sunday 28th June 6-8:30pm The auditions will involve group work, script work and character work, and you will not need to prepare anything. Entrance to the theatre is via the back gate, at the Middle Wall end of Kemp Alley, opposite the United Reformed Church. Go through the door at the bottom of the slope and turn right to go into the bar area. We advise parents do not stay for either the readthrough or the audition, so your child can relax. However, if you wish to stay please let us know. Audition Extracts There will be nothing to prepare for this audition.
