Marion Art Center to hold auditions for ‘The Minotaur’

MARION — The Marion Art Center will hold open auditions for its June 2024 production of “The Minotaur,” written by Anna Ziegler and directed by Kate Sorensen-Young.

“A present-day version of a classic Greek myth, The Minotaur is a contemporary take on love, honor, and human connection,” according to the Marion Art Center. “With refreshing originality and wit, it explores how we break out of history in order to shape new stories for ourselves.”

Auditions will be held in the Marion Art Center’s Anne Braitmayer Webb Theater at 80 Pleasant St. in Marion on Sunday, Feb. 4 and Monday, Feb. 5 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. A total of nine performance dates are scheduled: June 7, 9, 14-16, and 21-23. Some dates may be subject to change. Friday and Saturday evening shows begin at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees begin at 2 p.m. with actors expected to arrive by 6 p.m. and 12:30 p.m., respectively.

The director also seeks a stage manager for the production.

All races, ages, colors, sizes, genders, gender-identities and experience levels welcome to audition. Casting is at the discretion of the director and depending on the final ensemble.
