South Bend Civic Theatre will hold auditions for the Tony Award-winning play, Take Me Out. Auditions will be Tuesday, Sept. 2 and Wednesday, Sept. 3 from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM and located at the Social Hall at First United Methodist Church (across the street from the theatre on Madison St) – please enter through the West Door into the basement. Perusal scripts are available from the South Bend Civic Theatre Box Office with a $10 refundable deposit; however, director Aaron Nichols will be providing sides for cold readings at the audition. The show requires a racially-diverse, all-male cast, so male minority actors are encouraged to attend. The production requires partial nudity and contains adult language and situations. Previous acting experience is encouraged but not required. Please come to auditions with all personal and professional conflicts between Sept. 4 and Nov. 23. Conflicts on production dates will eliminate you from consideration.
Baseball superstar Darren Lemming has it all: fame, fortune, and a winning team; and he just announced to the world that he is gay. Darren’s revelation sends shockwaves through his teammates, causing conflict and reexamining who they are. A smart, funny, and thought-provoking play that is both an ode to America’s pastime and an incisive character study. With several athletes coming out recently, the 2003 Tony-award winning play by Richard Greenberg presents a story prescient in its look at the collision between personal identity and the traditional male locker room mentality.
Take Me Out performs in the Warner Theatre 11/7-11/23.
