Lighthouse Repertory Theatre holding auditions

It’s time to dust off memorized monologues and brush up on acting skills, the Lighthouse Repertory Theatre will be holding auditions for two of its upcoming one-act plays– “Suddenly Last Summer” and “The Last Dance of Salome.”  

Actors can audition for either show on Feb. 4, 5 and 6 at 6:30 p.m. on 1072 3rd St. in Crescent City, and the shows will perform on April 24 to 26, May 1 to 3 and 8 to 10.  

“Suddenly Last Summer,” written by Tennessee Williams, will consist of two men and five women and follows a young woman who was the sole witness to her cousin's death. No one believes her story of how he died, and her aunt is trying to convince a doctor to have her committed to a mental asylum in order to silence her.  

“The Last Dance of Salome,” written by Oscar Wilde, has a cast of two women and four men and tells the Biblical story of Salome, who requests the head of John the Baptist on a silver platter as a reward for dancing the dance of the seven veils.
