English Theatre Leipzig is casting for its March 2020 show, Sophocles’ Philoctetes,
a new adaptation of a Greek tragedy with an original musical score.
Actors and singers of ANY LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE AND OF ALL AGES are welcome to join
our open auditions on Sunday, December 8th, from 10am to 2 pm.
Callbacks will be on held on Saturday, December 14th, 10am-2pm.
Show dates are 5th, 6th, 7th, 20th and 21st of March.
Auditions and performances will take place at the Neues Schauspiel Leipzig, Lützner Str. 29, 04177 Leipzig.
If you would like to participate, please respond to this mail (pr@englishtheatreleipzig.de).
The open casting workshop will include group improvisation, and experimentation with rhythmic movement and vocal delivery.
We might ask you to recite a short song or poem you know by heart (a lullaby, or a song you learned at school, or your soccer team’s anthem, for instance). We might also ask you to sing a short song. You’re welcome to prepare a song in advance, but you don’t have to: singing “Happy Birthday” will be just fine, too.
Finally, make sure you wear clothes and shoes you can easily move in.
For any questions or additional information, please write to the director, Abigail Akavia

We look forward to seeing you there!
