The Green Room Community Theatre will hold auditions for “The Watsons Go to Birmingham - 1963” on Monday, Dec. 16, and Tuesday, Dec. 17, 2024, at 7 p.m. Directed by Sidney Horton, the production is based on the acclaimed novel by Christopher Paul Curtis and tells the powerful story of a African-American family’s journey from Flint, Michigan, to Birmingham, Alabama, during the Civil Rights Movement of 1963.
The director is seeking actors, preferably African American, to fill a variety of roles in our upcoming production. In order to honor the story’s historical authenticity and context, the director aims to cast, preferably, an all African-American ensemble.
We are looking for performers who can convincingly portray the following character ages:
a 6-year-old girl
Two 10-year-old boys
Two teenage boys
A grandmother around 60 years old.
Additionally, we have roles available for adults, preferably African Americans in their 30s and older.
Important Notes:
You must be available for all performances scheduled for February 21, 22, 23, 28, & March 1, 2, 2025 and a Producer’s night TBD.
The Green Room Community Theatre is committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion. Performers of all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexualities, abilities, and ages are encouraged to audition.
The Watsons Go to Birmingham is rated PG due to its portrayal of sensitive historical events and themes.
