Something Wicked Comes to Room 207…and Carrollton!

Director Craig Jones will be holding auditions for energetic actors between the ages of 9-13 years old to bring to life the famous children’s book Harry Allard, with illustrations by James Marshall.

Sweet as honey Miss Nelson can’t control her crazy, chaotic classroom. How can she when, as the principal states, she’s just too nice? One day, Miss Nelson doesn’t arrive to teach her class, which sends the kids celebrating… until they meet her replacement: the “Wicked Substitute of the West” Viola Swamp! With Miss Swamp cancelling recess and overloading everyone with homework, the kids realize how much they miss Miss Nelson. They plan to do anything – including hiring a confusing private eye – to bring her back, and send Miss Swamp flying back to where she came from!

Auditions will be at Carrollton Arts Center, located at 251 Alabama Street in downtown Carrollton and auditions will consist of cold reads from the script.
