We will combine the Spring play, Mr. Pim Passes By, with the ever-popular short comedy series Romance on the Road in a multi-purpose audition. The big day will be November 26 - so work with casts can start in December. Time: 5 PM to 7 PM. Location, North Grenville Public Library, Kemptville Branch. Read below and email if you plan to audition.
Mr. Pim Passes By
This is the main Spring play of NGCT. The author is A. A. Milne. Performances will be from 7 May to 11 May, 2025, in Kemptville. We will be looking for several actors, and auditions will be scheduled soon. However direct contact is also encouraged. One interesting role has these qualifications: Female (age, say, 16 to 30 - the script says 19 or so but we do have lots of makeup) - and the ability to play piano and perhaps a few chords on the ukulele. If you might be this person and want to find out more about the role, email president@ngct.ca . In fact if you want to be part of this production or any others, in any way - email to auditions@ngct.ca !

ROMANCE ON THE ROAD
This is the acclaimed series of short travelling plays that NGCT offers to nonprofit organizations for their fundraising. The plays are interesting for actors who are not keen on the committment of a play-length play at this time.
