Description:
CenterStage in Lake Forest is looking for immediate replacements for two actors for our early August through mid-September 2024 production of William Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.
Perhaps William Shakespeare's most brilliant comedy, Much Ado About Nothing is the prototypical rom-com. The show abounds in warmth, wit, and wackiness, with some of Shakespeare's most quotable observations on love and affairs of the heart. It has been adapted to the silver screen many times in many forms, including Kenneth Branagh's 1993 classic and the recent "Anyone But You," starring Sydney Sweeney. SEEKING 2 actors of all body types, ethnicities, genders, etc. for the following roles:
LEONATO: kindly, amiable Governor of Messina; former military commander and good friends with the Prince of Aragon; likes to play matchmaker (age 30's-60's).
ANTONIO: Devoted, supportive sibling to Leonato, the governor of Messina (30's-60's).
Pay: $100 Stipend, plus a profit-sharing bonus.
Rehearsals on Zoom and in Lake Forest beginning immediately.
Performances: Saturdays & Sundays, August 3rd through September 8th in parks along the North Shore.
A Shakespearean monologue no more than two minutes in length. If you play an instrument, let us know!
