Actors Bridge Ensemble
is pleased to announce auditions for
Marcus Hummon's musical play THE PIPER
Sunday, September 12th
2-5 p.m.
Belmont Black Box Theater
To sign up for an audition time, go here.
THE PIPER is set during the second great wave of Irish immigration in Boston's Scollay Square, once referred to as “ the crossroads of hell.” It is the story of a mother, Jordan, an ex-prostitute who is trying to forge a new life running a small boarding house, and her daughter, Wilder, afflicted with polio but blessed with an extraordinary gift for music. In the mean streets of Scollay Square, someone is strangling prostitutes, and so when a mysterious boarder takes a room at Jordan's boarding house, rumors begin to fly.
Marcus Hummon’s hits include the Grammy Award-winning Rascal Flatts’ hit “Bless the Broken Road,” Dixie Chicks’ “Cowboy Take Me Away,” Sara Evans’ “Born to Fly” and Tim McGraw’s “One of These Days”.
Roles available for 11 actors who sing.
For auditions, please prepare:
- 16 bars from pop or Celtic song
- 1 min monologue featuring an Irish dialect
- If you play an instrument, bring it along. We'd love to hear you play.

Performances: Fri-Sun, Dec 3-5; Wed-Sun, Dec 8-12 at 7:30 p.m. (Sundays at 4:30 p.m.)
