The Open Book Players group is set to hold auditions for the first production of its 2023-2024 season, the children’s program “Frantick Frogs and Other Frankly Fractured Folktales.”
The auditions run from 6:30-7:30 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 27 at Oak Hill High School, 56 School Road in Wales.
This production is a compilation of folk and fairy tales with satirical and side-splitting twists to otherwise famous plots and will be directed by Lucy Rioux, artistic director of the Open Book Players, according to a news release from Rioux.
There are parts available for any fluent readers in grades two through 12.
Performances will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, Sept. 29 and at 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 1 at Oak Hill High School. Johnson Hall in Gardiner, the regular residence of Open Book Players, is still closed for renovation and restoration work.
