AUDITION DATES:  January 6, 7, 8 starting at 7:00 PM
SHOW DESCRIPTION: Sandy, the four-times-married-three-times-divorced owner of a wedding chapel in Las Vegas, has certainly seen her fair share of matrimonies! In the hilarious Four Weddings and an Elvis, we witness four of her funniest: Bev and Stan, who are getting married--by the King himself--as revenge on their exes; Vanessa and Bryce, two arrogant aging stars who are tying the knot as a publicity ploy, and are vexed by an aging Elvis who doesn't know who they are; and Martin and Fiona, a gentle postal-worker and a tough ex-con trying to get married before the police arrive! However, the final wedding is the funniest all: Sandy’s fifth and final wedding which reveals a hilarious twist!

General Info

All roles, unless otherwise announced, are open. Theatre Box encourages anyone who is interested to audition and is always eager to welcome new faces and fresh talent to its stage.  Theatre Box has a non-discrimination casting policy, open to members of all races, sexes, creeds, orientations, and abilities. We encourage people of diverse backgrounds and abilities to audition for our productions.

Please note that by auditioning, you are obligating yourself to a considerable rehearsal and performance process. Please be certain that you are willing and able to make this commitment.

We strive to make the audition process a positive and comfortable experience for everyone. Our goal is put on a wonderful show for the audience and an enjoyable and fulfilling process for local performers.

Do I have to prepare for auditions?

Play auditions generally do not require advance preparation, however it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the play and parts that are available to see which character suits you best. Actors may be asked to perform monologues, or may be asked to read from the selected script and to interact with other performers during the audition process, at the discretion of the director. For musicals, you will be asked to bring your own piece of prepared music. Most singers use sheet music, and an accompanist will be provided for you.

If you have one, we recommend providing a resume/CV/headshot at the audition.  You will be given an audition form to fill out as well.

Most auditions will be held openly, however certain directors may require closed auditions for certain productions.

When are rehearsals?

Theatre Box production rehearsals occur Monday and Wednesday evenings, typically from 7:30 - 9:30 PM.  All schedules are subject to change. Some rehearsals may be on weekends. Technical rehearsals are more frequent closer to show dates. The average rehearsal period is eight weeks before the show opens. 

How long do rehearsals last?

Rehearsal times may vary depending on the time of year. Most rehearsals will run approximately 2 hours. Every effort is made early in the rehearsal process to target specific performers at specific times, to minimize “down time” for performers at rehearsals.
