To request an audition, please read the information below, then click "Sign Up" at the bottom of this page. This winter we have two Performance Workshops to chose from! "12TH Night"Like many of Shakespeare's comedies, this one centres on mistaken identity. The leading character, Viola, is shipwrecked on the shores of Illyria during the opening scenes. She loses contact with her twin brother, Sebastian, whom she believes dead. Posing as a man and masquerading as a young page under the name Cesario, she enters the service of Duke Orsino. Orsino is in love with the bereaved Lady Olivia, whose brother has recently died, and decides to use "Cesario" as an intermediary. Olivia, believing Viola to be a man, falls in love with this handsome and eloquent messenger. Viola, in turn, has fallen in love with the Duke, who also believes Viola is a man, and who regards her as his confidant. When Sebastian arrives on the scene, confusion ensues. Mistaking him for Viola, Olivia asks him to marry her, and they are secretly betrothed, with a promise to be married when the time is right. Finally, when the twins appear in the presence of both Olivia and the Duke, there is more wonder and awe at their similarity, at which point Viola reveals she is really a female and that Sebastian is her lost twin brother. The play ends in a declaration of marriage between the Duke and Viola, Toby and Maria, and Olivia and Sebastian, though their marriages are never actually seen. "Fractured Fairy Tales"Helga and Olga Grime claim that they, not their brothers, are the true fairy tale writers. They say their brothers changed the ending, and now they want to show the world the true fairy tales, as they were supposed to be. So, they hired a rag tag group of actors, and this is the result. Hansel and Gretel are FBI agents, a kiss obsessed frog and a strange woman named Lulu that won't stop ruining the show.
