Title: Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire auditions
Post by: McGuinness on December 26, 2011, 03:21:27 PM
The auditions for the 2012 PA Renaissance Faire are coming up in early February. The Blackfryar cast auditions (the parttime "semi-professional" cast) are the first weekend, and the Bacchanalian auditions (fulltime "professional" cast) are the second weekend. The Blackfryars are mostly volunteer with the potential of some stipends, and the Bac's are paid with housing provided. Any independent performers can also contact the faire about possibilities for next season as well. More audition information is here: http://www.parenfaire.com/gen/auditions.php


I've been on the Blackfryar cast since 2005 and will certainly answer any questions I can. The Bac's are the fulltime actors but Blackfryars are mostly people who just do it for the fun of it. No acting experience is really necessary - we'll train you in all you need to know if you're willing to play!

I just received word from the entertainment staff at Mt. Hope. There have been some changes to the audition dates. The Bacchnalian auditions are the same, but the Blackfryar auditions have been changes to the last weekend in February, the 25th and 26th. Anyone who already scheduled an audition will be contacted to confirm the new dates and times.
