Main Stage Student Opportunities
Every once in a
while a show comes along with characters that are best portrayed
by youth actors rather than adult actors portraying children.
That's when we invite students to perform beside LCT's
professional actors. In the 2006-07
season two students were double cast as Tiny Tim in
A Christmas Carol while in 2007-08 there were four students
involved in A Laura Ingalls Wilder Christmas. During the
08-09 season there is one role for a student ... to play Jonas'
little sister Lily in The Giver.
We look for students available to rehearse and perform on the
same schedule as our professional company. We usually rehearse six
hours a day weekdays and one weekend day for two or three weeks
followed by daytime performances. Some adjustment can be made to our
pro rehearsal schedule to adjust for school schedules if
necessary. Instead of rehearsing mornings and afternoons, we
may rehearse afternoons and evenings for instance. There is a
larger concentrated daytime commitment for these productions so
unless you are home-schooled you may need to look
into alternate learning systems offered by your educational
institution. Much depends upon your personal school situation. A
link to the tentative rehearsal calendar has been provided further down on
this page.
Audition Dates and Times
The Giver
is the
only Main Stage production to use students in the 08-09 season. We
held auditions last April, casting is complete and the production
has closed quite successfully. There are
currently no other Main Stage production opportunities for
students this year.
