 “It’s a Wonderful Life” Auditions Announced at Poncan
Auditions for “It’s a Wonderful Life” the next production
of Evans Children’s Academy of Performing Arts will take place at the Poncan
Theatre on Monday and Tuesday, November 2nd and 3rd at 6:00 pm. The
auditions are open to all young people from 5 years old to college age.
Be prepared to read from the script.
Nick Sweet, Director stated “This live stage production of “It’s a Wonderful
Life” is based on the classic film by Frank Capra. The story in the film has
touched millions of people and gone on to become a Christmas tradition
ranking up there with Santa Claus, Scrooge, and the Grinch. Our production
is going to be very unique in that it is a recreation of the golden age of
live radio with all of the characters coming to life on stage in period
costumes, music, sound effects and dramatic staging, just the way it would
have been done in the 1940’s when the story is set.”
Dave May, Executive Director of the Poncan added, “As a side note it is
interesting that we will actually have the show broadcast live on local
radio station WBBZ, which began it’s long affiliation with Ponca City
broadcasting live right on the stage of the Poncan back in 1927.”
Performance dates for “It’s a Wonderful Life” will be December 3, 4, 5 and
6.
Those wishing to audition are encouraged to arrive at the theatre before
6:00 pm dressed in comfortable clothing and ready to read from the script.
