Los Alamos Little Theatre

Auditions will be at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday November 10 and 6:00p.m. on Monday November 11. The auditions will be held at the PAC, 1670 Nectar St.

The 8x10s is LALT’s well-loved short-play festival, held every other year. Eight local, sometimes first-time directors work with scripts by local and regional playwrights to stage eight 10-minute plays, and interested actors have many role options to choose from — and those cast have only 10 minutes of lines to memorize.
Scripts will be available to read at the reference desk at Mesa Public Library. However, it is not necessary to read the scripts ahead of time. Actors are welcome to come to the read-through and/or auditions without any experience with the scripts.
At auditions, directors will provide sides, which are short sections of the scripts, at auditions for actors to use. There may also be improvisational exercises. Both novice and experienced actors are welcome.

Performance dates for the 8×10 short-play festival will be Jan. 17, 18, 19, 24, 25, and 26.
