Open auditions for MACBETH

The Madrid Players are excited to announce auditions for our main 2012 Spring show: "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare.



Auditon dates
Monday 9th January 2012 at 9pm

IMPORTANT
If you'd like to audition you'll need to prepare a speech (memorized) from a play by William Shakespeare. The speech doesn't have to be from Macbeth - any other play by William Shakespeare will do. Christopher Marlowe or Ben Jonson are welcome too, or any other as long as they are Elizabethan or Jacobean authors.

The should be 1-3 minutes long. Please, try not to exceed 3 minutes. A second speech is allowed for those who want (this is entirely for the actors' commodity).

If you have skills, such as singing, fencing, karate, boxing, or dancing, it's a good idea to show a minute of this. (Not having these skills doesn't eliminate you!)

If you are unable to attend an audition on either of the above dates but still want to try for a part, please contact the director (Victor) cuccioli25@hotmail.com


All members and newcomers are welcome to audition. If you get a part in the play and are not a member of the Madrid Players, then you will need to become a member. Membership fee is 20 euros.

A BIG thank-you

The Madrid Players would like to thank everybody involved in this year's golden pantomime, Mother Goose. It's the hard work and dedication of everyone involved that really makes the pantomime a success. Also a special thanks to everybody that came to watch it - you were an amazing audience for all five shows!
