What they are looking for
Strongbox Theater in East Rockaway, on Long Island, is casting Ken Ludwig's farce Lend Me a Tenor, directed by Micah Spayer. This is a non-union production, and the listing does not break down the roles. Auditions are December 12 and 13 in the afternoon at the theater, with a one-minute comedic monologue and possible sides read on the same day. Rehearsals run January 4 to 31, 2027, and performances run February 11 to March 7, Friday through Sunday. It is paid, with a stipend for the production. To get an audition slot, email your headshot and resume. Apply through the original listing.
Castina's tip
Pick a fast-paced farce monologue with a clear physical beat, since that is the tone of the play: something by Feydeau, Neil Simon or Ludwig himself works well. Plan to stay the whole afternoon, because they may ask you to read sides on the spot. Before you email, make sure you can do evening rehearsals in January and weekends in February and March.
