Edison
Stagelight Players hold open auditions for spring production
The Edison State Community College Stagelight Players are holding open
auditions for William Shakespeare’s As You Like It, on Tuesday, January
26 and Wednesday, January 27 at 7:00 p.m. in the Robinson Theater on
the Piqua campus.
One of William Shakespeare’s pastoral comedies, As You Like It
chronicles the story of heroine Rosalind as she escapes persecution in
her uncle’s court. Accompanied by her cousin Celia, Rosalind flees to
find safety and, eventually, love, in the Forest of Arden. While
travelling through the forest, they encounter a variety of characters,
including the despondent traveller Jaques, who recites one of
Shakespeare’s most famous speeches.
Auditions will last approximately two hours and consist of cold
readings from the script. Production dates will run from early to
mid–April 2016. Jayson Grigsby is directing the play. For more
