Open Auditions for Blithe Spirit | Encore Players, Senior Readers Theatre at Black Mountain Center for the Arts

A New Readers Theatre Program Launches in the Swannanoa Valley—Join the Encore Players Onstage!
The Black Mountain Center for the Arts is excited to launch the Encore Players, a brand-new senior readers theatre program, and we’re looking for performers for our first production: Noël Coward’s classic comedy Blithe Spirit.
Readers theatre brings stories to life through voice and performance—no memorization required. Whether you’re a seasoned actor or brand new to the stage, this low-pressure, welcoming program is a great way to explore character, connect with others, and share the joy of storytelling.
About the Play
When novelist Charles Condomine hosts a séance for research, he accidentally summons the ghost of his first wife—causing hilarious chaos with his very alive second wife. Witty, supernatural, and full of fun, Blithe Spirit is a crowd favorite.
Auditions
Format: Relaxed cold readings from the script
Who: All experience levels welcome; ages and genders flexible
When: Thursday, February 12 & Friday, February 13 | 11:00 AM–1:00 PM
Where: Gale Jackson Theatre, Black Mountain Center for the Arts
Come be part of this exciting new chapter in Swannanoa Valley theatre and help launch the Encore Players!
