AUDITIONS: LORCA IN A GREEN DRESS DECEMBER 3 & 8-10, 2024
- Tacoma, WA*-Tacoma Little Theatre and The University of Washington-Tacoma
are holding auditions for their joint production of Lorca in a Green
Dress! This
production will be directed by Maria-Tania Bandes B. Weingarden, and
choreographed by Marisela Fleites-Lear.
Auditions will be held Tuesday, December 3rd at The University of
Washington Tacoma. Auditions on Sunday, December 8th and Monday, December
9th will be held at Tacoma Little Theatre (210 N I Street, Tacoma WA
98403), and Tuesday, December 10th at the Star Center (3873 S 66th St,
Tacoma, WA 98409). Audition appointments will be set starting at 6:00pm on
Sunday and 7:00pm on Monday and Tuesday. Callbacks will be held on

Lorca in a Green Dress pays homage to Federico García Lorca, writer of
Gypsy Ballads, Mariana Pineda, and Play Without a Title. Lorca was killed
by fascist forces on August 19, 1936 in the opening days of the Spanish
Civil War. Upon his death, the great Spanish poet arrives in the “Lorca
Room” in purgatory where he learns he will be quarantined for the next 40
days. With dramatic and sensual flamenco flair, Lorca in a Green Dress is a
spellbinding exploration of the life and death of Lorca. Five different
actors portray aspects of the poet’s personality in a surrealistic
landscape that questions what it means to die, to live, to create and to
love.
*Anyone and Everyone is invited to audition for any production at Tacoma
Little Theatre regardless of any physical attribute, gender, race, age,
ability, body type, ethnicity, expressions, or experience. All roles for
