About
Jen Silverman's THE MOORS, directed by Dr. Javier Luis Hurtado, will perform in LeFevre Theatre Oct. 28-Nov. 1, 2026.
This audition info page will be updated by mid-August with more audition info, a tentative rehearsal schedule, a Google Form to tell a bit about yourself and your experience, and a SignUp Genius form to sign up for an auditions slot.
You are encouraged to come to our Theatre Open House on Tues., Sept. 1, at 5:30pm in LeFevre Theatre to meet new and returning students with an interest in Theatre. The director of the fall play will be there to answer questions and explain his vision of our production of THE MOORS.
All students are welcome to audition, including first years, transfer students, graduate students, beginners, etc. No experience necessary.
We practice race, gender, and ability-conscious casting.
Auditions will take place in LeFevre Theatre on the stage on Wed., Sept. 2, and Thurs., Sept. 3, probably between 6 and 9pm (you will choose an audition slot during that time period). Callbacks are planned for Fri., Sept. 4, but the time has not been chosen yet.
Rehearsals will most likely be Mondays-Fridays 6-9pm, though everyone will not be called during that whole time period and everyone will not be called for every rehearsal day. You will be given an option to state your conflicts or times when you are not available.
To prepare for the audition, you can read the script here.
Jen Silverman's The Moors is a dark, surreal comedy that brilliantly subverts classic 19th-century Gothic literature—particularly the works of the Brontë sisters. It explores themes of loneliness, power, and visibility through a bizarre, sometimes violent, but darkly hilarious lens.
