RAAC to hold auditions for ‘A Christmas Carol’

The Rappahannock Association for Arts and Community continues its return to live, in-person theater with performances of “A Christmas Carol,” based on the classic short story by Charles Dickens, as this year’s Christmas production.

As with past holiday productions, the play requires a large cast of all ages. The play, directed by one of RAAC’s favorite actors, Stephanie Mastri, will be performed Friday and Saturday evenings, Dec. 2, 3, 9 and 10 at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday afternoon Dec. 11 at 3 p.m. at RAAC’s new theatre space in the Little Washington Theater (291 Gay Street), across the street from their traditional location.

Auditions will be held at the Little Washington Theater on Saturday and Sunday, August 13 and 14 between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. and on Sunday, August 21 between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. Actors will be asked to read lines of one of the play’s many characters, and children may be asked to sing a few lines of a song that may be included in the play.
