The Spotlights production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is under way; auditions are over, casting is complete and we even finished the all important process of a first "read-through." With a cast of 24 students, we were able to cast all of Shakespeare's original characters with exception of the "Changeling" child, or as he was referred to at the read-through, the "challenging child." One curious observation from the auditions - the most auditioned for parts for this play were "Helena, Demetrius" and "Puck." That made the casting quite difficult as there was a lot of talent demonstrated there on the stage!
Either way, the actors have received their parts and already began the process of developing characterization. We can't wait to get started with rehearsals and look forward to an epic production! So please mark your calendars for April 25 & 26 for the performance of a life time!
