THE STORY Based on the Stephen King’s first novel, Carrie is the story of a high school girl with telekinetic powers. Bullied by classmates and abused by her overbearing mother, Carrie finds herself on a path toward independence and acceptance by her peers- until everything comes to a brutal end on prom night.

THE CAST • Carrie White • Margaret White- Carrie’s mother • Sue Snell- the first to befriend Carrie; the story is told from her memories • Tommy Ross- Sue’s boyfriend who takes Carrie to the prom • Chris Hargenson- Carrie’s biggest foe, determined to bring her down from her ascent • Billy Nolan- Chris’ boyfriend and cruel partner in crime • Reverend Bliss- church leader • Mr. Stephens- English teacher/guidance counselor • Ms. Gardner- PE teacher • Named Students- George, Freddy, Frieda, Stokes, Helen, Norma • Chorus- students and other smaller roles

The cast will feature ~25 performers (principals and chorus).

THE PRODUCTION Attendance at all rehearsals is mandatory for principals and for support cast as needed. A calendar will be distributed on a bi-weekly basis- I assume you can be at all rehearsals, Monday through Thursday (3:05-5:30) and Friday (2:30- 5:30) unless otherwise noted on this form. A missed rehearsal may require dismissal from the show. Masconomet's Drug and Alcohol Policy applies to all cast and crew members of school productions. There will be 3 performances of Carrie: October 27, 28, and 29 at 7:00pm.

AUDITIONS Auditions for all male roles will take place on Monday, August 29, from 3:00-4:30pm. Auditions for all female roles will take place on Monday, August 29, from 6:00-8:30pm. Auditioners will be taught several songs from the show for a singing/acting evaluation. Casting will be completed and announced that evening and the first full-cast rehearsal will be on Tuesday, August 30 from 12:30-3:30pm. Other rehearsals (for principals only) will take place for the remainder of that week and will be announced with the cast list. Full cast and non- principal cast rehearsals will begin when classes begin after Labor Day.

REHEARSALS Most rehearsals will run 3:05-5:30 but are subject to change. It is important that you note any schedule conflicts on the opposite side of this sheet- any missed rehearsals not recorded there are considered unexcused absences and may result in dismissal from the cast. Activity fees must be paid when due.
