9. The Joy Luck ClubThe UCL Singapore Society cordially invites you to be part of the cast of our 09/10 production, The Joy Luck Club.
Based on the movie script by Amy Tan and Roland Bass, JLC weaves together tales that span continents and decades, from wartime atrocities to cheating husbands and piano recitals. It's a whirlwind of characters that will leave you feeling elated, worn out, excited and sympathetic - all before the mahjong party is over.
There are eight lead roles, as well as a host of other colourful characters to audition for (rapists! deaf piano teachers! chess champions!) There's something for everyone, even if all that tickles your fancy is miming or simply eating ice cream on stage. Absolutely no prior theatre experience is required.
Three audition slots will be held, all at the UCL Bloomsbury Theatre on Gordon Street.
Wednesday, 14th October
1900-2100
Conference Room, 2nd Floor
Wednesday, 21st October
1900-2100
Conference Room, 2nd Floor
Friday, 28th October
