On Monday and Tuesday evening, April 27 and 28 at 7 p.m. the Sherman Community Players will be holding auditions for the final production of the 2008-2009 Season, CAMELOT, the musical. This famous musical comedy is a splendid and richly romantic re-telling of the famed Arthurian legend. Set in a magical and mythical land, CAMELOT celebrates the glorious days of chivalry with music, drama, romance and humor. The story follows the fabled King Arthur from his shy first meeting with his future bride, Guinevere, through the creation of the Round Table.
In addition to Arthur and Guenevere, other colorful characters include Lancelot, Merlin the Magician, knights and their ladies, the evil Mordred and the exotic sorceress Morgan le Fey.
Director Ron Cassady and musical director Scottie Johnson are looking for actors and singers from teenager to adult. All auditioners must bring a prepared song to sing. A pianist will be available or a CD/tape player will be provided for taped accompaniment. Auditions will be held in the Finley Theatre at 500 N. Elm in Sherman. No experience is necessary.
CAMELOT is scheduled to open June 5 and play through the 28th. Rehearsals will begin during the first week of May.
