(BERKELEY HEIGHTS, NJ) -- The Wharton Community Players (WCP) will hold auditions for The Moors by Jen Silverman on Sunday, September 22, 2024 from 6:00pm-9:00pm and Tuesday, September 24, 2024 from 7:00pm-9:00pm at 60 Locust Avenue in Berkeley Heights.
Directed by Jenna Burke and produced by Timothy Maureen Cole, The Moors is a riveting dark comedy harking back to Victorian England, where two sisters dream about what life can be. The arrival of their new governess takes all the characters on a path they couldn’t have anticipated in this satirical play full of feeling and wit. WCP is seeking adult actors for multiple roles.
