LST is holding auditions for its summer production of Shakespeare’s The Tempest, which will be performed at Musser Park June 5-15. These audition sessions will be held at the Stone Independent School (480 New Holland Ave) on Sunday March 9 from 2 pm to 5 pm, and Monday, March 10 from 6 pm – 9 pm. Call-backs will be held on the evening of Tuesday, March 11, by appointment.

LST seeks diverse casts of various ages and these sessions are open to everyone.
Please bring with you:
1) A theatrical resume and headshot/photo
2) A one-to-two-minute classical monologue (If you are new to Shakespeare, you are welcome to forgo the monologue and perform a cold reading of sides we provide. If you have ANY Shakespeare on your resume, you are strongly encouraged to prepare a monologue).
3) Your scheduling conflicts during the three months prior to opening night (see the dates of the run below).
The ultimate beach vacation, Shakespeare’s final play starts with a storm and takes place on a remote island inhabited by magical and colorful spirits. Chief among them is the magician, Prospero, who commands all with the tip of a wand. But even Prospero cannot control the enchantment that ensues. This production in the park will be a perfect summertime combination of magic, betrayal, revenge, romance – and above all, laughter. Directed by Jonathan Strayer.
This production is LST’s Shakespeare-in-the-Park offering.
Shakespeare’s full play and character breakdowns can be accessed for free from multiple sources online.
