Franklin Players, One of the longest-running community theatre companies in the greater Johannesburg area is looking for budding actors to audition for its One Act Play Festival.
This year, aspiring scriptwriters and directors came together and produced a wonderful selection of scripts. The best scripts were reviewed by Franklin Players’ managing committee and 11 were chosen to be staged at The Roosevelt Park Recreation Centre at the end of March this year.
Auditions will be held on 19 January from 2pm to 5pm and on 20 January from 7.30pm to 10pm at the Roosevelt Park Recreation Centre Hall on the corner of Anton van Wouw and Preller drives, Roosevelt Park (just off Beyers Naude Drive).
The selected scripts range from dramatic to comedic pieces, while some are edgy and others more family-friendly – so there is something for everyone. In addition to the 26 female and 34 male actors to be cast in the plays, a further four roles may be played by actors of either gender, and they are also looking to cast a 10- to 12-year-old boy.
Auditions are open to everyone and Franklin Players invites anyone who wants to be on stage to join in – even if they’ve never acted before. Community theatre is a great way to live out dreams of stardom in a safe, friendly environment, to build life-long friendships and to build confidence. The team looks forward to welcoming newcomers this Sunday.
