City Shakes
City Shakes is casting the roles of Silvius and Duke Senior/Duke Frederick for their summer production of As You Like It. The Dukes will both be played by a single actor using a hat – and his ingenuity – to distinguish between the two characters. Rehearsals begin May 12. Performances run weekends June 9 – July 7. This production is non-union and non-paying, but offers a great opportunity to perform Shakespeare outdoors with a group of dedicated theater makers. Please email headshot and resume to CityShakes@gmail.com. For more information visit their casting page at http://cityshakes.org/nowplaying/.
