Description:
Those wanting to hone or test their performance skills -- while sharing stories of Elmhurst residents of years past -- are invited to audition for "Graveside Stories" Cemetery Walk. Auditions will be held at 7 p.m. Sunday, August 13 and 7 p.m. Monday, August 14, 2023, at First United Methodist Church of Elmhurst, 232 S. York St. On performance days, tours will walk through the cemetery, stopping at characters' graves to hear their stories.
"This performance is perfect for beginners because there's not a huge number of lines to memorize, and there's the ability to try things out and experiment," said Becca Easley, director. "There are fewer rehearsals and performances than with plays," she added. "We perform in the evening with a lighted lantern walk on Friday, October 5 and during the early afternoon on Saturday, October 6."
There will be three solo performances and three roles done in scene style with partners.
A co-production between GreenMan Theatre Troupe and the Elmhurst History Museum, the performances will run October 5 and 6, 2023, at the St. Peter & St. Mary Cemetery in Elmhurst.
