CSM Auditions for “The Laramie Project.”

6 - 8 p.m., Jan. 23 and 24. College of Southern Maryland, La Plata Campus, Fine Arts Center, 8730 Mitchell Road, La Plata.

The CSM Theatre Company will hold auditions for its upcoming Cause Theatre production, “The Laramie Project.” CSM’s Cause Theatre offers several touring shows per semester, each bringing to light a different social issue, designed to be informative and challenging. “The Laramie Project,” a play by Moisés Kaufman, tells the true story of a student at the University of Wyoming who was kidnapped, severely beaten and left to die, tied to a fence in the middle of the prairie outside Laramie, Wyo. His name was Matthew Shepard, and he was the victim of this assault because he was gay. “The Laramie Project” explores the depths to which humanity can sink and the heights of compassion of which we are capable.

To audition, monologues are welcome but not necessary, and auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Auditions for this production are open to those in high school and above. This production will be performed at the La Plata and Leonardtown campuses March 22 – 31. Old Line Bank is the proud sponsor of the College of Southern Maryland’ s 2011-12 Theatre Arts productions. 301-934-7828, 240-725-5499, 443-550-6199, 301-870-2309, Ext. 7828 or BxOffc(at)csmd.edu.
