Auditions for Twelfth Night
May 2 @ 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm
The Montford Park Players
The Montford Park Players is committed to gender-neutral and race-conscious casting. ALL are welcome and invited to participate! Community theatre is at its best when it fully embraces and engages its FULL community, not just one portion.
BIPOC actors, we need you.
LGBTQIA+ actors, we need you.
Actors with disabilities, we need you.
Actors of all ages, we need you.
Twelfth Night will be performed Fridays through Sundays, June 23rd-July 21st at 7:30 pm. Rehearsals will begin in mid-April and continue until opening.
A large cast is needed and the breakdown is as follows:
All characters are open to actors of any race, ability, gender, or age unless otherwise noted. Genders and sexualities of characters will be molded to fit the actors who best suit the role, with consideration of the other actors on stage.
All characters will be asked to sing and dance (nothing hard or complex, its pirate shanties y’all) and play instruments if they are able.
VIOLA (woman, cis or trans) is tossed ashore in a strange land and presents as a cabin boy for safety. She quickly falls in love with Captain Orsino.
CAPTAIN ORSINO is a powerful and noble pirate lord and true ruler of Illyria, despite it technically being the king’s land. He is lovesick for Captain Olivia.
CAPTAIN OLIVIA runs the local inn in the wake of losing her father and brother. She is rich, fearsome, and good with a sword.
SEBASTIAN/SEBASTIENNE (gender depending on casting) is Viola’s twin, and baffled by how many people in Illyria think they know him already.
MALVOLIO is the straitlaced and haughty first mate of Captain Olivia. He pines for her but looks down on her crew.
FESTE is a traveling bard, jester, and clown making his living in Illyria. They enjoys playing tricks on the straitlaced and haughty. They miss their banished lover.
THE BANDMATES are a few lost souls who follow Feste and accompany their antics. Must play Instruments. Don’t have to speak. Can play various small roles.
TOBY BELCH is Captain Olivia’s drunkle uncle. He plots for a marriage for Olivia and is a walking bisexual dumpster fire.
MARIA, part of Captain Olivia’s crew, has a sharp wit and a trickster spirit. She is pining for Toby.
ANDREW AGUECHEEK is a “special friend” of Toby Belch. He tries to woo Olivia at Toby’s request because he lacks the capacity for original thought.
ANTONIO was banished from Illyria due to the king’s antiquated laws on love, but following Sebastian, he returns to the land of his lost lover.
VALENTINE is a member of Captain Orsino’s crew. Also plays GUARD.
CURIO is a member of Captain Orsino’s crew. Also plays GUARD and SAILOR.
Anyone who is interested in a technical role only (stage management, lights, sound, etc.) should send an email to [email protected] and include your background, if any. We welcome all volunteers!
