Time for another theatre part for me??? Greenville Little Theatre Auditions - Dracula

On Monday August 27th the Greenville Little Theatre will be holding auditions for the upcoming play "Dracula". I dropped by the theatre today (well, technically yesterday since it's quite early in the morning) to chat with my friends at the box office, and I picked up a script for the show.

It's hard for me to decide what I want to audition for in this show. There are several good parts, although the parts of Dracula and Van Helsing are pre-cast (the excellent talents of Will Ragland and Allen McCalla respectively). There is a part for an insane guy... hmm, that could be interesting!

For those of you who don't know, I am a theatre enthusiast and a part time actor. I've been in three shows at the Greenville Little Theatre: Guys and Dolls, Ah, Wilderness, and Into the Woods. Two musicals and a comedy - not too bad for someone who made their first on-stage appearance EVER at the age of 31!

I'm still trying to make my final decision on whether to audition or not. The biggest decision maker is my schedule. If that works out ok, and I"ll have the time for the rehearsals, then I'm going to put on my best British accent and audition! The worse case scenario is that I don't end up auditioning, and get to watch it from the theatre, which will be very enjoyable in itself.

Come and see the show (regardless of whether I'm in!). The Upstate is lucky to have such a fine institution as the Greenville Little Theatre, and I think that everyone should check it out.
