Hamilton-Gibson Productions will be holding auditions for 15 cast members of all ages and genders to play many of our best-loved fairy tale characters in the upcoming production of the comedy, Once Upon A Crime, The Trial of Goldilocks, by Flip Kobler and Cindy Marcus. Performances will take place June 13 – 16 during the Laurel Festival at The Warehouse Theater in Wellsboro. The play is being directed by Titus Himmelberger, an experienced actor, director and set designer.
Once Upon A Crime is a hilarious fairy-tale courtroom play packed with characters we all know and love. The audience serves as the jury and determines how the play ends. Goldilocks is the defendant, on trial for breaking and entering, and the plaintiffs are the three bears. As their lawyers Henny Penny and Tom Thumb go toe-to-toe hoping to prove their respective clients’ cases, other fairy tale characters are called to testify as witnesses, including Hansel and Gretel, Jack and Cow, Granny, and more. Even the Big Bad Wolf takes the stand, but who should be trusted in this caper remains to be decided by the audience.
Auditions will be in the Warehouse Gallery on Thursday, March 28, Friday March 29, and Friday, April 6 at 6:30pm. They will also be held Saturday, March 30 and Saturday, April 7 at 10:30am, and Sunday, April 8 at 1:30pm. Audition information is also available at www.hamiltongibson.org/audition.htm
