Date of the audition:	December 11th
Location of the audition:	Empress Theatre, Magna UT

----------------------------------------
The Empress Theatre, located in Historic Downtown Magna announces auditions for their upcoming production of Man of La Mancha. Auditions will be held Saturday December 11th from 9am to 12pm at the Theatre located at 9104 West 2700 South. Callbacks will be held December 18th by invitation only.

The directors are asking those wishing to audition prepare 32 bars of any Musical Theatre song and come prepared with a headshot and resume, as well as a list of conflicts from January 2nd to March 26th. There are parts available for 15 men ages 16-70 and 10 women ages 16 to 70. All Parts are currently available. Please bring sheet music or a minus track to auditions. Readings will be done at callbacks.

Glen Carpenter will direct Man of La Mancha with musical direction by Tyler Kofoed. Production dates will be March 4th to March 26th on Fridays, Saturdays and Mondays at 7:30pm.

Man of La Mancha takes place in the late 16th century. Miguel de Cervantes (a tax collector, soldier, and author) and his assistant, Sancho, foreclose on a church that failed to pay its taxes. Thus, the Spanish Inquisition throws the two men into prison. The prisoners then steal Cervantes's possessions. However, he convinces them to allow him to win back a package of papers that would not be of value to other people. Pleading his case, Cervantes gives a dramatic defense by reenacting the story of Don Quixote of La Mancha: the passionate and poignant tale of a noble knight who lives in a world of madness and cannot see that chivalry has died. His holy quest is a mission of salvation to find compassion not for him but for others. Moved by the story, the prisoners return Cervantes' manuscript (which turns out to be his unfinished novel about Don Quixote) just before he is called before the Inquisition.

I have no musical talent, but I'll come and see it if you cast yourself as Sancho.

Fair enough. Just saying I think you'd be very good in that role.

I've played it twice, hence the directing thing this time... Wink
