Our performer pool here is so wide and impressive that I could have cast this show three times over. I had immense fun with everyone in callbacks and hope anyone who took part can say the same. Thank you to everyone who was vulnerable enough to share their hard work with the directing teams and fellow actors. I cannot wait to get started on this project, and if you would like to get involved with John Proctor Is the Villain in any other way or visit our rehearsal room to watch and learn from our process, please do reach out.Sloan Garner (sloan.garner@uga.edu) CASTCHARACTER NAMERaelynn Nix Bella SmithBeth Powell Claire WathenCarter Smith Bryson MaycumberShelby Holcomb Alyssa HalfordNell Shaw Meagan RunnerMason Adams Alex CheeksIvy Watkins Nora FeeneyLee Turner Jacob DeckerBailey Gallagher Lily MorrisStudent | Raelynn Swing Natalie HammStudent | Beth &amp; Bailey Swing Gabby AlmonStudent | Shelby &amp; Ivy Swing Arushi RazaStudent | Nell Swing Arwa AbdelrahmenSudent | Mason Swing Elliott FurieCarter U/S, Lee U/S Nathaniel Long <h2>The Art of Noticing</h2>Note from the DirectorThank you all for showing up and showing out at auditions and callbacks!

It is great that there was so much interest in these productions. We saw some amazing auditions for the Spring productions. Everyone should be very proud of your preparation, and your work. MOE was a difficult audition, and you all did an impressive job! Unsurprisingly, your great work made this process for the three directors difficult and exciting.There are many factors going into casting an entire semester of shows so please do not think you did poorly if your name is not here! You are an extremely talented group, and you keep raising the bar every semester. Thank you all for making and helping to create a space where people felt safe enough to risk and make some big, beautiful choices in these auditions. As MOE begins its design process, we may be looking for people who would be interested in participating in the show in additional ways. If you are interested in being involved and were not cast in one of the shows, please reach out to me.Continue to bring your best self into the room each time you audition. Be proud of the work you do – and continue to love and support one another as proud, bold and daring artists.

PLEASE NOTE: It is the expectation that all understudies for this show will be fully rehearsed to be ready to go on at a moment’s notice in case anyone is sick or vocally not well during the rehearsal process or during performances. With so many performances with a young cast, it will be imperative that the understudies understand that health and vocal safety of all involved is a top concern and priority. However, a performance cannot be guaranteed. </div></body>
