MCALLEN, Texas – South Texas College Theatre will hold auditions for its November main stage production of Puffs or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic by Matt Cox.
Auditions will be held in-person on Tuesday, September 12 and Wednesday, September 13 from 6 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. All STC and Rio Grande Valley community members, age 18 and over, are welcomed to audition. This will be a live performance with a live audience. For those auditioning in person, please prepare a one-to-two-minute comedic monologue and be ready for some improv scene work.
In Puffs, main character Wayne Hopkins is a regular boy who finds out he’s a wizard and goes to school in England where he makes two best friends and has adventures. This perhaps sounds familiar, but Wayne is sorted as a Puff. He and the other Puffs simply want to learn how to be wizards, make it through a magic school that proves to be dangerous for children and avoid attacks by evil wizards.
