Edgar Allan Poe'sTHE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH
An Interactive Adaptation by Time Slip Theatre
May 29 - June 7
Time Slip Theatre
Directed by Charlie Meredith + Remy Sisk
Rehearsals begin the week of April 13 and the schedule will be built around actor availability.
Auditions will take place March 29 (2-4PM) and April 2 (7:30-9:30PM), and auditionees need only attend one date of the two. If you’re unable to make either date, please email [email protected] to schedule a virtual audition, though please make every effort to attend one of the two dates!
To audition, please fill out the preliminary form at the link here: https://forms.gle/4vRKGZA2nBbscga3A.
We will collect further details closer to your audition date.
As this is an adaptation original to Time Slip Theatre, the show is going to be developed around our pool of actors. Consequently, there are no preexisting characters to specifically audition for. At auditions, we will read a few scenes we’ve roughed out, we’ll do some improv and we’ll explore together. It will be a fun, collaborative and no-wrong-answers environment! No need to prepare anything at all for auditions.
Mood Board: A demented and dreamlike blend of “Euphoria,” “Climax,” “The White Lotus,” “Fire Walk With Me,” “Saltburn” and “Mulholland Drive.”
Please be aware that this will be a site-specific, interactive and immersive experience, not a traditional on-stage production.
A small stipend will be paid out to actors upon conclusion of the run.
PLOT SYNOPSIS
As the Red Death ravages the population, Prospero gathers members of his entourage and their relations to avoid the external sickness and death within the confines of his eccentric yet august abbey, where he has provided all his guests could ever need, including entertainment of all sorts. But on the night of a masquerade ball, the party discovers that they may not be as alone as they had thought.
“To and fro in the seven chambers there stalked, in fact, a multitude of dreams…”
