Jonesborough Repertory Theatre will hold auditions for the upcoming production of ON GOLDEN POND Sunday and Monday, Oct. 16 – 17, at 7 p.m., at the theater.
The auditions will include cold reads from the script. ON GOLDEN POND will run Jan. 20-Feb. 5, 2023, and rehearsals will begin in mid-November.
The cast and age breakdowns are Ethel (50s-60s), Norman (60s-70s), Charlie (30s-40s), Chelsea (30s-40s), Billy Jr. (teen), Bill (30s-40s), and the telephone operator (voice only; any gender or age).
Written by Ernest Thompson, ON GOLDEN POND introduces Norman and Ethel Thayer who, for decades, have spent their summers at their cottage on Golden Pond in Maine. This particular summer will be different as the couple anticipates a visit from their daughter, Chelsea, who is somewhat estranged from Norman. When she arrives, Chelsea is accompanied by her fiancé, Bill, and his son, Billy Jr., who ends up spending part of the summer with Norman and Ethel. JRT is located at 125 W. Main Street, Jonesborough. For more information about auditions, contact Smith at wrenmarston37604@gmail.com.
