Theatre--Auditions

The Evangeline Players will hold open auditions for The Bishop's Wife, based on the 1947 Samuel Goldwyn movie and adapted for the stage by Dave McGrath.

An Episcopal Bishop, Henry Brougham, has been working for months on the plans for an elaborate new cathedral which he hopes will be paid for primarily by a wealthy, stubborn widow. He is losing sight of his family and of why he became a churchman in the first place. Enter Dudley, an angel sent to help him. Dudley does help everyone he meets, but not necessarily in the way they would have preferred. With the exception of Henry, everyone loves him, but Henry begins to believe that Dudley is there to replace him, both at work and in his family's affections, as Christmas approaches.

Audition Dates: Saturday, September 10th (2-4 PM) and Monday, September 12th (6:30-8:30 PM)

Auditions are open to everyone. The cast consists of a wide range of ages, so there is something for everyone.
