Musical play auditions this week

Auditions will be held in the KVNF Talmage Room in Paonia on Thursday, Jan. 12, from 6-8 p.m. and Saturday, Jan. 14, from 2-4 p.m. for a new musical by Marty Durlin.

Titled "Beautiful Radiant Things," the play is based on an incident in the life of the anarchist Emma Goldman (1859-1940). With only a few lines and more than 30 songs, the musical is Durlin's third in Paonia. "Babbitt" (2008) and "Pollyanna" (2010) played to full houses.

"Beautiful Radiant Things" will open April 13 at the Paradise Theatre for a two-weekend run, followed by performances in Boulder and Denver in late April.

The play calls for seven women, ages 20-50, who can sing, act and dance. Please prepare a 2-3 minute song, with or without accompaniment, to show off your range. You will also be asked to read from the script, and to learn a short dance.

For more information, contact Jan Simmons at 527-3039.
