CIRCA PINTIG is holding audtions!

CIRCA Pintig, the Chicago-based community theater company is looking for actors and singers (males and females, ages 16- 50) as well as production crew for its upcoming musical play “Game of Trolls: Reimagined.” Written by Liza Magtoto, the play was originally staged by the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) and is now adapted into the Filipino American context. It tells the story of Heck, a troll whose iack of attachment to any belief makes him the perfect keyboard warrior for Bimbam, the manager of a ‘call center’ that runs an online pro-martial law campaign. Heck uses his trolling skills to unleash callous words against anyone who critiques the horrors of martial law. Ghosts of Martial law victims haunt him from the internet cloud as the fear of their stories being erased from history lurks in the chaotic world of digital media. The encounters forces him to reflect on his own beliefs and his relationship with his mother, a former Martial Law activist. Playdates scheduled for October 26-28 and November 2-4 and 9-11.

Audition dates are August 23, Thursday @6-8pm, August 25, Saturday and August 26 Sunday @ 2-5pm at the Hana Center, 4300 N.
