Please come prepared with a 1-3 minute monologue of Shakespearean style. (If you cannot find one, come with what you have; some sides will be supplied. Regardless, you may be asked to read a side or two at your audition.) Walk-ins will be seen as time allows. Video auditions will be accepted from those unable to attend either day of auditions; contact information@heritageplayers.org for further information.

Auditions are open to adults only (age 18+).

All rehearsals and performances will be held at the Elizabeth Seton Center, 1900 Pioneer Ave, Pittsburgh (Brookline), PA 15226. Rehearsals will typically be held on weekday evenings and some weekends, beginning September 2; specific days/times TBD.

Prior Shakespeare experience is not necessary - all are welcome!

From the Director, Kaitlin A. Kerr-Heidenreich: "Nothing is but what is not." - This production will focus on the themes and questions of the nature of our reality (What is real? How do we know? Are there degrees of reality?) and how, when all else is stripped away, the true nature of these characters can be revealed to themselves and to others. This production will also incorporate the concept, both technically and textually, of echoes, and well as the "uncanny" or "macabre" being what pulls us in and unnerves us...much more than simple "horror." Furthermore, we always have a choice, although the choice that benefits self may also cost us our own humanity.
