Audition Preparation:
"Thank you for your interest in Prior Lake Players production of Much Ado About Nothing. A quick note on the stylization of this production as you prepare for your audition. The setting will be contemporary with heavy influence from Reality Television Docu Dramas. Think Keeping up With the Kardashians, Real Housewives, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives etc. This will be a very campy, heavily dramatized, comedic production so bring your best dramatic over the top selves. No worries if you have no formal Shakespeare training all are welcome and encouraged to audition! Can’t wait to see your performances!" -Anna Kral
