Auditions for “The Play That Goes Wrong”

September 28 @ 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM

The Yakima Valley College Drama Department will host auditions for its fall production, the comedy “The Play That Goes Wrong”  by Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer and Henry Shields and arranged with Dramatists Play Service.

Those planning to audition should prepare a 45-second to 1-minute monologue about their own funniest “play that went wrong experience” in a live theatre production or a 45-second to 1-minute monologue from another comic play. Roles are available for eight to ten total actors, female- or male-identifying, ages 18 and up. Community members are encouraged to audition, but YVC students will be given preference when casting. Alicia Bickley, drama instructor, will direct the production.

Auditions will run Thursday, September 26 and Friday, September 27 from 3:30 – 6 p.m. and Saturday, September 28 from noon – 3 p.m. in YVC’s Kendall Hall Auditorium (Building 12) on the Yakima Campus.

About the play

Welcome to opening night of the Cornley University Drama Society’s newest production, “The Murder at Haversham Manor,” where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. This 1920s whodunit has everything you never wanted in a show—an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines). Nevertheless, the accident-prone thespians battle against all odds to make it through to their final curtain call, with hilarious consequences! Part Monty Python, part Sherlock Holmes, this Olivier Award-winning comedy is a global phenomenon that’s guaranteed to leave you aching with laughter!

For more information call 509.574.4837.

Performances will be November 15-17 and November 20-22 at 7:30 p.m. and November 23 at 2 p.m. Online ticket sales will be announced soon.
