WTC hold auditions for ‘The Revolutionists’

The Whitefish Theatre Company is holding auditions for its production of “The Revolutionists” Dec. 13 and 14 at 7:30 p.m. at the O’Shaughnessy Center in Whitefish. Arrive early to fill out an audition application, waiver form, and review the script. Enter at the north side of the building. Masks are highly recommended when you enter the building, although you will be able to remove them during your audition. Do not attend if you are feeling sick.

In this fresh, fast-paced comedy by award-winning playwright Lauren Gunderson, a quartet of beautiful, badass women raise hell in Paris during the French Revolution. The Revolutionists are real-life characters that include playwright Olympe De Gouge, assassin Charlotte Corday, Haitian rebel Marianne Angelle, and the one-and-only Marie “Let Them Eat Cake” Antoinette who conspire to avoid losing their heads — literally — during the insanity of the Reign of Terror. This bold and blisteringly funny play is about violence and legacy, art and activism, feminism and terrorism, compatriots and chosen sisters, and how they actually go about changing the world.

Auditions are being held for three female roles in the show, ages 20s to 50s. Pages from the script will be provided at the audition. If you would like to familiarize yourself with the script, it is available at the theater and valley public libraries.

Kim Krueger is the director. Rehearsals begin the week of Jan. 13 and will be held Monday through Friday from 6/7 p.m. to 9/10 p.m. There are seven performances over two weekends on Feb. 24-27 and March 3-5.
