AUDITIONS: Sense and Sensibility… and Margaret (Ages 14+)

Directed by Faith Worley
Auditions: Tueday, June 16 at 6:30 PM

Jane Austen’s beloved story gets a fresh twist—told through the eyes of Margaret Dashwood, the youngest sister and an aspiring novelist. As Margaret narrates, we move between a cozy café in the early 1800s and the Dashwood family’s past, watching Elinor and Marianne navigate love, heartbreak, and the very different ways they face the world: sense and sensibility.

Audition Format: Cold readings from the script (no monologue required). Please arrive a few minutes early to fill out paperwork and get settled. If you have conflicts between June 16 – Sept 5, bring a list with you.
