The Legend of Sleepy Hollow holds auditions
Historic Schoenbrunn Village will be holding auditions on Sunday, August 28, at 6 p.m., at Schoenbrunn Village for this year’s production of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The performance dates will be Oct. 21 and 22 at the Schoenbrunn pavilion in the lower level off of Delaware Avenue in New Philadelphia. This year’s production will be expanded from the debut performances in 2011.
Based on the Washington Irving beloved classic tale about the headless horseman, the story is set in upstate New York in the late 18th century. Major roles include a narrator, schoolmaster Ichabod Crane, wealthy landowner Baltus Van Tassel, his daughter Katrina and neighborhood bully Brom Bones. Also in the cast will be about eight townspeople, six schoolchildren and Brom’s gang of four, some of whom will have limited speaking roles.
“One role has already been cast - the horse,” said Kate Smith, site director.
The auditions will be held in the Schoenbrunn gift shop auditorium located at 1984 East High Ave., New Philadelphia 44663. For more information, contact Carrie Callahan, event coordinator, at 877-278-8020.
