November auditions for “August” in February
The Black Swamp Players will be holding auditions soon for a production of one of the most powerful and popular dramas of the past two decades. The Pulitzer-winning play “August: Osage County” will be performed by the company in February, and they’re looking for a cast of 13 performers, six men and seven women, aged 14 through late 60s (though they would prefer a young-looking adult for the youngest role). Auditions will take place on Saturday, November 6 from 2-5pm and Sunday, November 7 from 6-9pm. Auditions will be held at 115 E. Oak St., Bowling Green.
