Auditions now open!

Here are the audition shots currently received by the casting director Cleo Mummingford.
|Auditions: Page One| |Auditions: Page Two| |Auditions: Page Three|

Auditions are simple, just email minxkely@xnet.com with a full length photo and facial close up of the performer. Include the performer's name, and what roles they are auditioning for, or choose "any" if you will take any role assigned. Feel free to add any personal info or personality details that you think might win you the part. Decisions will be based solely on appearance, the whim of the director, and other superficial details.

We will provide all costumes as well as a few mementoes of the production for the performers to take home. You need only deliver the chosen actors/actresses to me by the deadline date of June 30. The performers should arrive with only the outfit they are wearing as our storage facilities are reaching maximum capacity. Please include return postage for your performers.

Don't think less of the smaller parts. They actually have several smaller roles but maybe more scenes total than some of the major roles. I will try to have every performer have at least one speaking part, but if they do not have a speaking part they will have a dance number. If your performer is turned down for all roles, I will also welcome as many as 6 total gophers and stage hands to help with the production These should be bendy leg, and no auditions are necessary. They'll get to help out, have fun, and party with the cast at the wrap party. These spots will not be filled until after the auditions are over.

Any Boingo campers not involved in the play and present at my home at the time will get to attend the performance and have the best seats in the place.

The tale...
Many years ago it became time to elect a new Head of Fairyland. After much discussion, it appeared that the choice lay between two fairies, whose claims to the throne were so equal that it was impossible to prefer one to the other. One of those fairies was called Fairy Flight and the other one, Fairy Constance.

Under the circumstances it was unanimously decided that whichever of the two fairies could show to the world the greatest wonder, that fairy should become Head of Fairyland. But it was to be a special kind of wonder, no moving of mountains or any such common fairy tricks would do.

Fairy Flight decided that he would bring up a Prince who would charm one woman after another but would stay true to no woman. Fairy Constance decided to bring up a princess who was so enchanting that no man could meet her without falling in love. If Fairy Flight's changeable prince could withstand the charms of Fairy Constance's princess, then Fairy Flight would win and become Head of Fairyland. On the other hand, if Fairy Constance's princess could win the heart of the prince and so gain his proposal of marriage, then Fairy Constance would become Head of Fairyland.

They each went to their mortal subjects to work their charms and win the contest! Oh what mischief could lay in the hearts of fairies.
