Auditions set for 'Sleepy Hollow' production
Historic Schoenbrunn Village will hold auditions on Sunday, Aug. 12 for this year’s production of “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" in the Schoenbrunn gift shop auditorium at 1984 E. High Ave., New Philadelphia. Children’s auditions will be held at 6 p.m. and adult auditions at 7 p.m.
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. Included this year in the script is a song, which will be sung by the townspeople and conducted by Ichabod.
The performance dates and times are Friday, Oct. 26 and Saturday, Oct. 27 at 7 and 9 p.m. both nights. Tickets go on sale to members of the museum on Aug. 1 and the general public on Sept. 1.
