AUDITIONS: ETC Presents "Suddenly Last Summer"

Auditions for Empire Theatre Company’s production of Tennessee Williams’ Suddenly Last Summer!

Deep amongst the monstrous flytraps and ferns in Sebastian’s garden, tendrils of a sordid family secret are beginning to unfurl. Sebastian Venable died mysteriously last summer and his mother, Violet, will do anything in her power to protect his memory – and her own reputation. Young cousin Catharine was the only witness to this nightmarish event. She is desperate to reveal what really happened, but Violet will go to any lengths to stop the ugly truth from seeing the light of day.

*This production is intended for mature audiences.
