North Central Texas Drama department to host online auditions
May 10—North Central Texas College's Drama Department is hosting online auditions at 7 p.m. for its virtual production of Puffs by Matt Cox.
The auditions will be held over Zoom at 7 p.m. Monday, May 10 and Tuesday, May 11.The production needs 11 individuals aged 16 and up. Email Thom Talbott at ttalbott@nctc.edu to get the google docs for the audition and a Zoom invitation.
A news release from the college provides this synopsis of the show: "Puffs is a tale for anyone who has never been destined to save the world. For seven years a certain boy wizard went to a certain Wizard School and conquered evil. This, however, is not his story. This is the story of the Puffs ... who just happened to be there too. This clever and inventive play gives you a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes just trying to make it through a magic school that proves to be very dangerous for children. Alongside them are the Puffs, a group of well-meaning, loyal outsiders with a thing for badgers. Their hilariously heartfelt and epic journey takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a wizard hero can be."
The production will be directed by Talbott with technical direction by Missy Embrey, officials said.
The performances will be streamed at 7:30 p.m. on June 18, 19, 24, 25, 26, and 27. Tickets will be available via nctc.universitytickets.com
