LOCH SHELDRAKE, NY — The SUNY Sullivan Theater Arts Program will hold auditions for Lope de Vega’s “Fuenteovejuna/The Sheep Well,” a revolutionary classical Spanish play adapted and directed by Jessica López-Barkl; and Jack Sibblies Drury’s “Fairview,” a 2019 Pulitzer Prize-winning piece directed by Nick López. 

The 2023-2024 theater season explores the theme of identity, with each play delving deep into the difficult choices characters make as they begin to determine who they truly are.

Auditions are open to high school students, college students and community members. Performers can audition in person from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, January 24 and Thursday, January 25. To make an in-person audition appointment or request further information on the audition process, email Jessica López-Barkl at jbarkl@sunysullivan.edu.

If you cannot make it to an in-person audition, you can send in a self-tape to López-Barkl at the above email address. 

Rehearsals will run Monday through Friday, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. for “Fuenteovejuna/The Sheep Well” and 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. for “Fairview,” with a tech rehearsal on Sunday, April 21.

“Fuenteovejuna/The Sheep Well” will be performed outside near SUNY Sullivan’s Hope Farm on April 27, May 1 and May 3 at 6 p.m. The play will also be performed on May 5 in the same location at 2 p.m.

“Fairview” will be presented in the Seelig Theatre on April 26, May 2 and May 4 at 8 p.m., with a 2 p.m. performance on April 28.
