“Number the Stars” Auditions
Location: Haddonfield, NJ
Type: Theater
Haddonfield Plays and Players is pleased to announce auditions for our 2018 production of Number the Stars!
A tender and intense adaptation of Lois Lowry’s novel about one of the most inspiring episodes in human history: the rescue of the Danish Jews during World War II. Annemarie Johansen is surprised when her best friend Ellen Rosen arrives in her apartment to spend the night. When two Nazi soldiers appear at the door looking for the Rosen family, Annemarie’s parents pretend that Ellen is their own daughter. Annemarie comes to realize that all the Jewish Danes are in terrible danger, and that it is up to their Christian neighbors to help them escape to neutral Sweden.
Auditions will be held on Monday February 5th and Tuesday February 6th starting at 7:00pm with possible callbacks on Thursday February 8th. All Roles Open. Please prepare 16-32 bars of a song in the style of the show. An accompanist and cd/mp3 player will be provided.
