AUDITIONS: A CHRISTMAS STORY
AUGUST 30TH & 31ST
Tacoma Little Theatre is holding auditions for its holiday presentation of the stage production of everyone’s favorite Christmas movie, A CHRISTMAS STORY.
Humorist Jean Shepherd's memoir of growing up in the midwest in the 1940’s follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher and even Santa Claus himself. The consistent response: You'll shoot your eye out! All the elements from the beloved movie are here, including the family's temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys' experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie's father winning a leg lamp, Ralphie's fantasy scenarios, and more.
Roles are available for 2 men, 2 women, 5 boys, and 2 girls, with a small ensemble. Please prepare a 1-2 minute comedic monologue.
