Auditions for ‘CLUE: On Stage’ at Pequot Lakes Community Theatre

Auditions for the play “CLUE: On Stage,” presented by Pequot Lakes Community Theatre, will be held Aug. 6 and 7 at Pequot Lakes High School Theatre, starting at 6:30 p.m.

Rehearsals begin in the third week of August. Performances are October 10-14, 2024. The show will be directed by Jennifer LaRee Anderson.

Based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie that was inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, “Clue” is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu.

When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by Wadsworth, the butler, Miss Scarlet, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. “Clue” is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out — WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!

Actors ages 18+ with a commitment to strong character work are encouraged to audition. Auditions will consist of readings from the script, improvisation, and character work. There are roles for six men and five women.

Rehearsals will typically be held Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. with Wednesday and Friday (and longer rehearsal hours) added closer to performances. For a full list of rehearsal dates and times, full character descriptions, and production information please visit www.glapa.org
