Here's a synopsis of Mirror, Mirror, On the Wall: A Virtual Fractured Fairy Tale:

Fairy tales may not have the magic of technology, but they do have magic! And through the wonders of the magic mirror, even fairy tales can come to life for the virtual stage!

The Evil Queen wishes to be the fairest of them all. But when her Magic Mirror informs her that it is Snow White who is most fair, the queen is livid! When asked how to find the princess, her mirror mentions that Snow White has run away. The Evil Queen summons great magic in hopes of finding Snow White — she can now to look through all mirrors throughout the kingdom. But there’s a catch... the magic also allows everyone else’s mirrors to show them what they most wish to see.

Best-selling fractured fairy tale playwright Brian D. Taylor creates storytelling magic with these magic mirrors, and it’s all written specifically for rehearsing and performing remotely! Rapunzel gets to talk with Prince Dashing, who’s outside of her tower, Beauty sees the Beast who has taken her father prisoner, and Cinderella, who just wants to dance at the ball, gets connected to her Fairy Godmother. And there’s plenty more fun! All these stories are moving toward their happily ever afters while the Evil Queen is hunting down Snow White, and you can guess that one will have a happy ending, as well!

Virtual auditions will be held on October 7th and 9th, at 4:30pm

Preparing for Auditions

For your audition, please adhere to the following:

  • Wear plain, non-distracting clothes (standard school dress codes do apply).

  • Place yourself in front of a plain/solid color, well-lit background. Ensure that your entire face and body are visible.

  • Be in a quiet environment with no audible or visible distractions (i.e. pets, family, music, TV, etc.).

  • Join the meeting 10-15 minutes prior to your audition, and check your audio and video while in the waiting room.

  • Audition using a laptop or desktop computer, not a cellular device.

  • You are encouraged to memorize your lines, but it is not required.

  • Auditioning for a specific role does not limit you to only that role; if the director finds that you would be better suited for a different role, you may be assigned that role instead. This is fully at the director's discretion.
