    Hi all,

    I've become involved in a production of two scenes from Terry Pratchett's "Wyrd Sisters", which'll be part of the Trinity Shakespeare Festival. However, the director's currently tearing out his hair as we need girls for the cast - namely, girls to play Magrat Garlick, Nanny Ogg, and Granny Mistress Weatherwax.

    So if you are or know a girl who'd be interested in auditioning, let me know please! You can get in touch by PM or to kenneals@tcd.ie, and I'll forward you to the director.

    Cheers,

    Stephen.

    oooh fancy that :)

    Have you tried posting in the theatre/preformimg arts forum?
    Or alerting the no drama ladies?

    hmm a chance to play Gytha, not sure I could let that pass.

    I'm being careful, as I'm not the director. I have his blessing to spread the word to people or groups I'm aware of, but I don't want to step over the boundaries of his role too much.

    Got your PM, and forwarded the email address to him. Hope to see you there - beats his original plan of putting me in drag to play Gytha. :D

    While I think I may have slightly better cleavage the notion of you Daming Gytha is an amusing one :D
