Miss Nelson is Missing
Tuesday, May 04, 2010
CAC’s acting class participated in rigorous auditions this September, competing for roles in our upcoming feature, Miss Nelson is Missing. The audition process was the most competitive of the three plays performed at the center, including Little Red Riding Hood and the Power Mutants, A Festival of Shorts, and the play in discussion here. Auditions required that each actor perform a one-minute monologue, cold readings, have a resume in hand, and convince three judges that s/he should be cast in the show.
As always, CAC cast each child in the production who demonstrated commitment to rehearsals, but Fine Arts Director Melissa Harlow said, “It was incredible to work with the kids as they prepared for more professional auditions.”
Fifteen CAC youth are rehearsing three days a week, preparing to take the stage in late January 2010 in Miss Nelson is Missing. (Go to “Contact” to request show times.)
