The Recycled Shakespeare Company has scheduled auditions for January.
One for “Valentine Vaudeville” is set for 5-7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 7, at Fairfield House of Pizza, 207 Main St.
Those who audition are asked to demonstrate and discuss the talent one wants to act: song, comedic sketch, dance number or recitation.
This fundraising variety show is planned for Feb. 11. For more information, call 207-272-7084, according to a news release from Lyn Rowden, company founder.
“Merry Wives of Windsor” is the company’s next Shakespeare play. Auditions will be open 2-5 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 15, at South Parish Congregational Church auditorium at 9 Church St. in Augusta.
On Monday, Jan. 16, from 5-7 p.m., auditions will be held at Fairfield House of Pizza. Most rehearsals will be on Sundays in Augusta with some in Fairfield, and the performances are planned for May 11-13 and 19-21. Those who plan to audition can prepare a monologue and/or do cold readings.
As it is the company’s mission to produce community theater for all, there is no fee to participate, all are welcome, anyone who wants a part gets a part, and accessibility is always made possible. People should attend if interested in working with props, stage, costumes, and other aspects of the show.
