Do you like stories with pirates, princesses, villains and warriors?

Then audition to become part of the cast of “Para-Cles” a parody written by Melanie Walker based on Shakespeare’s lesser-known play to be presented at Furnace Town’s Renaissance Faire on August 21st and 22nd.

Each actor will play two to three parts with no lines to memorize – this 30-minute play will be acted out based on the somewhat accurate and humorous reading by our Narrators. Para-Cles is a very physical play with lots of whacky comedy moments.

Roles for ages 16 through 60

Auditions were held on Sunday, July 11th at 4:00 and Monday, July 12th at 6:00
at Community Players located at 5109 Nutters Cross Rd.

Rehearsals will be two evenings per week based on cast preferences
