CURRENT AUDITONS

​ABOUT THE SHOW

On a porch in Little Current, Manitoulin Island, two devoted sisters, Glenda and Suzanne, share laughter, secrets, and a charming veterinarian neighbour. Their peaceful summer is disrupted by the arrival of Suzanne’s daughter, Beth, whose visit stirs old tensions and hidden truths. As a wild wedding, medicinal mischief, and a budding romance unfold, the women must navigate tangled relationships and long-held regrets. Through sharp wit and tender moments, Where You Are reveals how love and forgiveness can bloom in the most unexpected places.

​

"A story about family that is at once laugh-out-loud funny and as warm as an August evening. Da Silva is a wonderful dramatist.” –Norm Foster, playwright.

​AUDITION REQUIREMENTS

• Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script

• ​** We will have 2 copies of the script available.  If you would like to borrow a copy, please contact Judi at artisticdirector@theatreaurora.com.

• All roles are open to consideration regardless of background, ethnicity, or sexual orientation and/or gender identity. Ages indicated in the breakdown are ages reflected on stage and not necessarily the actual ages of the actors.            

• REMEMBER: Casting is subjective and completely based on someone else’s opinion. Sometimes casting decisions are based on age, looks, height, or how you look next to other cast members. You will not get cast in every role you want and sometimes you won’t get cast at all. If you are not cast in this show, you should still celebrate the fact that you gave it your best shot. If this is not the right show for you, we hope to see you at the next audition.
