BE A PART OF RADIO HISTORY WITH WCTH RADIO HOUR AT CTH

Are you ready to step into the world of classic radio and bring iconic characters to life?  Community Theatre of Howell is thrilled to announce auditions on Monday, March 18 for the upcoming WCTH Radio Hour. Join us as we recreate the magic of live radio and celebrate the art of storytelling through sound.

Voice actors and Foley artists are needed. WCTH Radio Shows offer a low time commitment as rehearsals are only once per week. There is no line memorization, the performance is done with scripts in hand. No prior experience in radio theatre is necessary – we welcome performers ages 13 and older for roles in these exciting radio drama reenactments.

We will be featuring two captivating radio stories that will be performed on Sunday, April 28: Big Town – “Pittsburgh Lil” and Our Miss Brooks – “Board of Education Day”.

Big Town – “Pittsburgh Lil”:  In the bustling city of Big Town, the Illustrated Press newspaper reigns supreme. The newspaper is driven by a merciless managing editor and his fearless society reporter, Lorelei. When Lorelei refuses to write a malicious expose about a socialite’s scandalous past, the editor takes the article into his own hands with murderous consequences.

Our Miss Brooks – “Board of Education Day”: It’s Board of Education day at Madison High School and Principal Conklin has tasked Miss Brooks with arranging an exciting ceremony for the Superintendent. A series of amusing mix-ups involving a prankster, an athletic dimwit and a stuffy Principal culminates with explosive ceremonial results!

Auditions will be held at 1400 W. Grand River Avenue in Howell on Monday, March 18, 2024, from 6:30 to 8:30 pm. The performance will take place on Sunday, April 28, 2024 at 2:00 pm. There may be one off-site performance on Sunday, May 5, 2024. The description of characters will be shared at the beginning of the audition process. Please bring a list of all conflict dates between March 19 and April 28 to your audition. The first rehearsal is scheduled for Thursday March 21, 2024 at 6:30pm.
