Hey all!
SDOA auditions are coming up on April 20th and we are excited to have you all come and get involved! This is an opportunity for the younger class (freshman-juniors) to audition for the 10-minute, senior-directed shows and have an incredible bonding and acting experience in just three weeks. Our seniors have applied and been chosen as your directors with some awesome, fun shows and ideas. Below is a list of shows and directors for you to look over as you choose and prepare your monologues.
Remember you will be considered for ALL shows unless otherwise marked in your audition packet and then assigned to the one you are cast in by the directors. Check out the descriptions below and links to the packet. Hard copies of the packet are already in the Little Theatre on the call-board as is the signup for an audition time slot!
Directors: Kaylee Cannon and Taylor Fairbourn
SHOW: Pareidolia
4 college students gather around a park bench and have a petty argument about shapes in the clouds. Although the conversation begins harmless, it soon spirals into deeper debates about perception, perspective, and personal values. The play causes us to ask the question: Are we aware of our own flaws and patterns?
Directors: Alyssa Read and Niv Raz
SHOW: Loyalties
Two couples, Rudy and Monika, and Jacob and Katrin, are having a celebratory birthday dinner for Monika, and things start to get tense as we slowly see that Rudy and Monika directly support the Nazi party and Jacob and Katrin are against it. They have an argument about what it means to be patriotic and what the difference is between that and blindly following a country's actions.
Directors: Braden Mark and Molly Smart
SHOW: Mom's Kitchen
A restaurant where they treat you like they’re your mother! The only problem is that Bill is not the biggest fan of his mother, and his date, Betty, is not impressed. Will ‘Mom’ be able to rein him in or will the whole date end in disaster?
Director: Layna Johnson
SHOW: Totally Basic Defenders
Totally basic defenders is a comedic show about a group of underwhelming superhero’s who take themselves way too seriously. When a ridiculous villain professor Zapbolts threatens the world with a “rabies ray” (which is actually just a hairdryer), the team must step up to stop him. Despite their barely useful powers, they somehow managed to save the day through teamwork, luck, and a lot of awkward effort.
Directors: Cara Barnes and Leah Memmott
SHOW: Sorry, Wrong Number
One lonely evening, Mrs. Agnes Stevenson attempts to call her loving husband Elbert to see when he’ll be home. However, the operator connects her incorrectly, and she overhears a murder plot for that very night. Will she find help before it’s too late?
Directors: Chloe Hinman and Madison Jones
SHOW: The Will
A historical comedy about a family who reads their will of their father after his death. However, there’s a catch - they get to decide who the inheritance goes to and along with that who has to take care of the mother.

SHOW: The Question
Four androgynous aliens from the other side of the cosmos - Bip, Bop, Bleep, and Blop - abduct a hapless young man from Earth to ask him their planet's most troubling question. When young Andy hears the question, however, all he wants to do is go back to bed in his own plane of reality.
Director: Ethan Regan and Aubree Hewlett
SHOW: A Willful Murder
After the death of Maude Adams, her siblings, Arthur and Florence, her niece and nephew, Dorothy and Joseph, her former stepson, Kenneth, and her former mother-in-law, Victoria, are sent letters by Maude's solicitor calling them to her home. Her solicitor, Walter, is delayed at the airport in the rain and won't be arriving at the home for a few hours. Soon, people start dying, one by one, and accusations start being thrown around at each other, until just one is left...
Directors: Nate Coleman and Christian Holyfield
SHOW: An Elevator of Tragedy or Destiny
It's a fall day in the 2000s, and four characters from very contrasting backgrounds end up stuck in an elevator together. Kitty (a passionate entrepreneur), Marvin (a successful businessman), Darlene (a new mother), and Will (a determined janitor) all figure out their struggle together. From realizing their situation is much worse than it had seemed, to discovering that all of them seem to belong together, the elevator quickly becomes a symbol for something greater.
Director: Kason Seamans
SHOW: The Couch
A young couple is fighting over what couch to put in their new house together. We see how their two friends encourage them to go back and forth swapping more than just a simple couch and what proceeds after the chaos.
Directors: Kendra Jones and JoshUA Graham
SHOW: Santa's Dolphin
In a world affected by global warming, Santa has shifted to using magical dolphins instead of magical reindeer to get from house to house on Christmas. Prancer and Blixen try to resolve tension with the new dolphins, Spouty and Leaper. Full of comedy and forbidden love, this show's purpose is to promote acceptance.
Director: Megan Carlson and Ainsley Cardall
SHOW: Spark's Fly
Fourth of July and President's Day are having relationship problems, and it's up to Doctor Valentine’s Day to fix it. Loud and oblivious, Fourth of July sees no problem. However, shy and non-confrontational Presidents Day has had enough. In this dramedy, we follow the couple's ups and downs, and see what happens when Holidays collide and "sparks fly."

SHOW: Jubilation, Mississippi
News Reporter, Chuck McDean, is sent to a town too small to be seen on a map; the mysterious and unknown Jubilation, Mississippi. Tasked to discover the secret of the local's constant state of blissfulness, he realizes there is something hidden behind their sinister and forced smiles and 50’s-fashioned clothing. As McDean’s interviews raise more questions than answers, he begins to realize that the secret to their happiness might not be the only mystery this town has to offer. . .
Director: Cassie Caldiero
SHOW: The Real Problem
In this comedic one act, five of Shakespeare’s female character come together and talk about their boy issues, all in a modern style. While out on the town, these characters all begin to argue about whether or not you need love/a man to be happy (spoiler alert: you don’t).
Directors: Ruby Gardner and Kenna Stevens
SHOW: The Big Picture
A desk in kindergarten can be a battlefield when the crayons come to life in The Big Picture by Mark Harvey Levine. This comedy takes place in a kindergarten classroom. A young artist, Debbie, is drawing a beautiful picture. We get the perspective from all the crayons on art, what it’s like being a crayon, and the importance of individuality and uniqueness. A hilarious and upbeat show!
Director: Nora Wetzel
SHOW: Corybungus
It's just another peaceful day at the local bookstore, until one well-read customer tries to return his defective dictionary. This customer will go to great lengths to prove that the word it is missing is completely reasonable and necessary, much to the annoyance of an employee of the store. And what is this missing word? Corybungus- an archaic word for bum.
Directors: Kassie Holt and Willa Grimmer
SHOW: A Late Summer
In this drama, two couples – one older, one younger – find that they have more in common than first meets the eye. These parallel stories weave together to explore what it means to grow up and grow apart, but never leave love behind entirely.
Director: Addi Scarborough
SHOW: Spoon
This is a comedic One Act that takes place in modern day, and is about a young unsuccessful inventor who is trying to invent a new invention for people to be able to lift liquid foods to eat. We see Hans struggle through the process of inventing and how he faces the pressure from people (including Marcey, Hans’s best friend) to get a job at her father's quilt business. In the heat of the argument he slams the table, creating the spoon. The word of this new invention travels fast through the town and catches the attention of Mayor Toil who is the mayor of Saison. When they hear about the spoon, they want to destroy the spoon even though it benefits the people to make more money. Then, to make matters worse, Mayor Trouble, the mayor of Tax-Eavasia, hears about the spoon and makes an appearance and is also motivated by greed. Hans ends up turning them all down knowing that his new invention is made for everyone and will make the world better. He goes to better the world himself with the invention of the spoon.

In A Smart-Alec and Two Idiots Walk into a Closet, a comedy, Connie, Lewis and Shawn find themselves locked in the school janitor’s closet. Before Connie and Lewis freak out anymore, Shawn takes matters into his own hands and sprays them with some bleach, to get them to ‘’cool down’’. In one act, things go from bad to worse when Lewis faints (or pretends to?) after he finds out what he was sprayed with. Connie tries to save him, a kiss doesn’t happen, they all almost die, hope is lost then found again and as they keep waiting for someone to unlock the door, they realize that freedom isn’t really free at all.
Directed by Ellie Vander Veur and Audrey Wilson

Tom gives people peace through his music as the ship slowly sinks into the ocean. The story goes on to show how the grieving family finds peace in Tom’s legacy and how his music touched many lives.
Directed by Anna Teichert
"Psych in The Suburbs" follows five household objects gathered in group therapy led by Gloria the ditzy therapist. These kooky characters include: a "pointless" knife, an alarm clock set fifteen minutes fast, a sock who lost his match, a germaphobic tissue, and a people pleasing rug. In their session they discuss their current life struggles through puns, monologues, and quippy comedy.
Directed by Jenna Foulks
Avalanche follows Barry and Clarice, two people from different walks of life that have been caught in an avalanche, and have survived. Barry is a boisterous man with lots of personality, convinced that Clarice is a part of the rescue team come to save him. Clarice, however, is quicker to come to terms with reality. Both characters are very endearing as they share the beauty and the humor of life in a traumatic situation with perhaps no chance of a rescue.
