Auditions: Students should read script for Angels in America by Tony Kushnerin its entirety (both Part 1 & 2) and prepare memorized monologues (not from Angels) that reflect their interest in a particular role. Scripts will be available to sign out for reading purposes in the main Theatre Department office in the Rhynsburger Theatre building. Actors cast in Amen Corner are encouraged to audition, and please arrive early. Actors cast in True West will not be able to be in this show due to rehearsal conflicts.
Callbacks: Readings from scripts. Production will follow Kushner’s double-casting guidelines (see characters list), so actors should be prepared to perform cross-gendered doubling for the role(s) they are interested in playing.
We will be performing Part One, Millennium Approaches in full production, but we will also perform Part Two, Perestroika in concert performance as part of the ANGELS IN PERFORMANCE: DOCUMENTING LGBTQ LIVES IN THEATRE AND PERFORMANCE which will take place the first weekend of performances. Mr. Kushner will be in residence for our final dress rehearsal.

Performances: April 25-27/May 2-5
Concert reading of Part Two, Perestroika, Sunday, April 28, 2PM.
