Springhouse Theatre Company is holding open-call auditions for two of the female roles in the upcoming production of Sanders Family Christmas, a sequel to last year’s hit gospel comedy, Smoke on the Mountain.

The auditions will be September 22 from 2:00 – 4:00 PM and September 23 from 7:00 – 9:00 PM. Performances for Sanders Family Christmas will be December 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, and 16. No appointment is required to audition. Y’all come!

The following is a breakdown of the two roles:

  • DENISE SANDERS – one of the twins, about 19 or 20 years of age (must be able to look about this age). Extremely talented gospel musician and singer, Denise is outgoing and completely oblivious that she is attractive. The role requires comic timing and a high level of musicianship. For this role, please prepare about 2 minutes of an old gospel hymn that shows personality and be prepared to play any instruments you are competent in playing.
  • JUNE SANDERS – eldest sibling, about 25 years of age. Soft-spoken and gentle, she is the outsider of the family and a true comedienne. She does not sing or play an instrument but is invaluable to the story. Her love and devotion to her faith and her family are to the detriment of her own potential; she is truly selfless and unknowingly funny! For this role, please prepare one comedic monologue, between 1 and 2 minutes in length.
