St Albans theatre group holding auditions
INNOVATIVE St Albans-based theatre group Breakaway are looking for performers to take part in a production in St Albans next Spring.
Breakaway is seeking actors and actresses aged 18 and above to perform in the psychological thriller Roberto Zucco.
Open auditions are being held from 2.30pm to 5.30pm this Sunday (2) at Park Street Village Hall and from 8pm to 10pm next Tuesday, December 4, at The Maltings Arts Theatre in St Albans.
It is not necessary to attend both auditions and there is no need to prepare anything in advance.
Bernard-Marie Koltes’ powerful play is based on a true story and follows the sinister adventure of a serial killer; a lost soul driven to commit terrible crimes without motive.
Inspiration for the play came from seeing a wanted poster in the Paris Metro in which four completely different pictures of Zucco were shown and the production also takes inspiration from this.
There are a number of roles in the play for both male and female performers and the audition is open to all.
