Greenfield – Silverthorne Theater Company’s first production for the 2021-22 Season will be Charles Ludlum’s hilarious two-hander The Mystery of Irma Vep, scheduled for October 1-16, 2021, in The Perch at the Hawks & Reed Performing Arts Center, Greenfield.  The Mystery of Irma Vep is the definitive spoof of Gothic melodramas and vintage horror movies. It’s a madcap quick-change marathon in which two actors play all the roles: the lord and lady of the manor, the starchy maid, the groundskeeper-cum-werewolf, plus an ancient mummy and a lingering ghost. The production will be directed by STC veteran Chris Rohmann.

Open auditions for the production will be held Sunday and Monday, June 20 and 21 from 7-9 pm, at the LAVA Center, 324 Main Street, Greenfield. Callbacks are scheduled for June 22 from 7-9 pm. The play has roles for two men. Auditions are open to all types & ethnicities – some facility with physical comedy and British accents is a must.

Audition appointments are required; auditioners should supply a current headshot and resume. More  details are available at https://silverthornetheater.org/audition/. To schedule an audition,  contact the theater at silverthornetheater@gmail.com or call 413-768-7514.  Auditions are open to Equity and non-Equity performers ; all roles are paid.
