Put yourself in his shoes, or the shoes of one of the plays other six characters, if youd like to audition for I Hate Hamlet at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at the Tamarac Theatre (7143 Pine Island Road, Tamarac). Theyre Playing Our Song, by Neil Simon, is casting at the same time, same place. In this two-character show, a composer teams up with a lyricist, and an erotic friction develops as a Greek chorus sings their inner monologues. For that audition, bring 16 bars of an up-tempo song and 16 bars of a ballad, with CD.
You can also catch auditions for the two shows on Saturday at noon. Call Tamarac Theatre at 954-726-7898, or visit tamaractheatreofperformingarts.org.
