Hello,
I am not a professional actress, however I did some acting in college. The performance won the talent competition in a preliminary for Miss America
I was one of 10 finalists in the Miss Connecticut pageant.
I came of age during the Vietnam War and hold many memories of those years. I would like to audition for the part of Martha.
Please email and inform me if I might audition.
Thank you for your time and attention to this request.
Shirley:
We are an amateur community theater that welcomes all skill levels. Hope to see you there.
