Theatre offers “Beauty and the Beast” audition workshop

Submitted by the San Juan Community Theatre

San Juan Community Theatre is offering an audition workshop to help prepare folks for upcoming formal auditions for Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast.”

Director Carol Hooper is holding the workshop at SJCT’s PARC Studio (70 Saltspring Drive) on Thursday, Dec. 14 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Hooper will explain more about the show (it’s the Broadway version — an expansion of the original animated feature film — not the recently released movie version). Attendees will also get a chance to do some singing and dancing and meet the production crew. Attendance is not required but encouraged. The cast will be primarily adults, with one child, 10 years or older, and possibly some high school ages cast.

Auditions for “Beauty and the Beast” are Jan. 8- 10. Performances will be in the Whittier Theatre on May 11-26.

For more information, contact Hooper at 360-370-5605.
