The Pacific Conservatory Theatre (PCPA) is looking for a young performer to fill the role of Pugsley in an upcoming production of The Addams Family.Â
The role of Pugsley is described as a boy who looks to be 10 to 12 years old, a “charming, funny boy who loves being tortured by his sister. He wants to ensure he won’t lose his sister to her new boyfriend, so he takes matters into his own hands.” The role is open to a boy or a girl actor.
The role will be double cast; performers are asked to prepare 60 seconds of a song from a musical of their choice. Performers should bring sheet music in the correct key along with them; a musical accompaniment will be provided. Along with the musical audition, performers will read a scene from the play. To receive the scene, email casting@pcpa.org with the subject “Pugsley audition scene.”
The audition will take place on April 14 at 10 a.m. in the PCPA rehearsal studios in the Columbia Business Center. Young performers are asked to arrive 15 minutes early. The audition will be finished by 12:30 p.m. For more information, call (805) 928-7731, ext. 4119. Auditions are held at 910 E. Stowell Road, Santa Maria.
