AUDITIONS: The Little Prince
AUDITIONS:
The Little Prince
By Rick Cummins and John Scoullar. Adapted from the book by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
Directed by Sarah L. Brewer
Audition Dates: April 3, 6:00PM, April 4, 3:00PM
Location: Homer High School Band Room (enter through the theatre wing doors by the dumpster on the left side of the school.)
Performance Dates: May 22, 23, 24 & 28, 29, 30 at Pier One Theatre on the Spit.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
This play tells the story of a world-weary and disenchanted Aviator whose sputtering plane strands him in the Sahara Desert, and a mysterious, regal "little man" who appears and asks him to "Please, sir, draw me a sheep." During their two weeks together in the desert, the Little Prince tells the Aviator about his adventures through the galaxy, how he met the Lamplighter and the Businessman and the Geographer, and about his strained relationship with a very special flower on his own tiny planet. The Little Prince talks to everyone he meets: a garden of roses, the Snake and a Fox who wishes to be tamed. From each he gains a unique insight which he shares with the Aviator: "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly." "What is essential is invisible to the eye." At length, both the little man and the Aviator must go home—each with a new understanding of how to laugh, cry and love again.
Little Prince: Young person, (not younger than 10); or short young woman. Innocent, ethereal, intrinsically wise, naive.
Aviator: Man, early 40s to early 50s. Wished to be an artist when they were a child, but grew up to be a "grown up". Has lost the magic and purity of being a child at heart at the beginning of the play.
Rose: Ageless, may be played by any gender or age. Naive, self-centered, in an innocent way. Does not necessarily know how to love. Authentically in love with the Little Prince.
Fox: Will be performing with arm stilts to be quadrupedal, must be able to move with forearm crutches for front legs. Wary of humans at first, comes to "be tamed", to love and know the Little Prince. Imparts great wisdom to the Little Prince.
Snake: Will be performed with rod puppet. Secretive, calm observant. Objective to the situation.
People on Planets: Ages and genders are variable. The planet folk represent certain human characteristics/archetypes that will be discovered and developed by the actors. They are the Conceited Man, the King/Queen, the Businessman, the Geographer and the Lamplighter. The Lamplighter will be a puppet on its own tiny planet, operated and voiced by a puppeteer.
There will be two additional puppeteers working Little Prince and Aviator puppets.

Synopsis:
Caesar’s assassination is just the halfway point of Julius Caesar. The first part of the play leads to his death; the second portrays the consequences. As the action begins, Rome prepares for Caesar’s triumphal entrance. Brutus, Caesar’s friend and ally, fears that Caesar will become king, destroying the republic. Cassius and others convince Brutus to join a conspiracy to kill Caesar.
On the day of the assassination, Caesar plans to stay home at the urging of his wife, Calphurnia. A conspirator, Decius Brutus, persuades him to go to the Senate with the other conspirators and his friend, Mark Antony. At the Senate, the conspirators stab Caesar to death. Antony uses a funeral oration to turn the citizens of Rome against them. Brutus and Cassius escape as Antony joins forces with Octavius Caesar.
Encamped with their armies, Brutus and Cassius quarrel, then agree to march on Antony and Octavius. In the battle which follows, Cassius, misled by erroneous reports of loss, persuades a slave to kill him; Brutus’s army is defeated. Brutus commits suicide, praised by Antony as “the noblest Roman of them all.”

Sandglass Theatre: Feral
Pier One Theatre and Bunnell Street Arts Center present:
Sandglass Theatre: FERAL
at Pier One Theatre, September 2025
Sandglass Theater returns to Bunnell Street Arts Center as Artists in Residence from September 13th-21st to present their work of theater and puppetry, Feral, at Pier One Theatre from September 19th - 21st at 7:30pm. Tickets at PierOneTheatre.org.
Sandglass Theater of Vermont is dedicated to the art of theater and puppetry as a means of exploring contemporary issues and sparking wonder.
“Feral" addresses the act of making visible the work of women through celebrating intuitive knowledge, how it is housed in our bodies, and how it can be used as a tool for individual and cultural repair. A wolf-who-is-no-longer-a-wolf returns to the forest, within her the violation of domestication, a claim of ownership on her body. She yearns for instincts of which she feels only traces. This is a story of disruption within a woman’s life when the wolf inside her howls, and the possibilities of reintegration with that feral voice.
This program is made possible with support by the National Performance Network and co-commissioners, The Yard (Chilmark, MA), Bunnell Street Arts Center (Homer, AK), Next Stage Arts Project (Putney, VT), and Dancers’ Workshop (Jackson, WY). This project is presented in Homer in partnership with Pier One Theatre and supported by the RurALCAP Foundation.
Sandglass Theater company members include Shoshana Bass, Dey Hernandez, Maria Pugnetti and Sarah Nolen. LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Bunnell Street Arts Center's mission is to spark artistic inquiry, innovation and equity to strengthen the physical, social and economic fabric of Alaska. LEARN MORE ABOUT THE RESIDENCY

Sandglass Theater of Vermont is dedicated to the art of theater and puppetry as a means of exploring contemporary issues and sparking wonder.
“Feral" addresses the act of making visible the work of women through celebrating intuitive knowledge, how it is housed in our bodies, and how it can be used as a tool for individual and cultural repair. A wolf-who-is-no-longer-a-wolf returns to the forest, within her the violation of domestication, a claim of ownership on her body. She yearns for instincts of which she feels only traces. This is a story of disruption within a woman’s life when the wolf inside her howls, and the possibilities of reintegration with that feral voice.
This program is made possible with support by the National Performance Network and co-commissioners, The Yard (Chilmark, MA), Bunnell Street Arts Center (Homer, AK), Next Stage Arts Project (Putney, VT), and Dancers’ Workshop (Jackson, WY). This project is presented in Homer in partnership with Pier One Theatre and supported by the RurALCAP Foundation.

Saturday, September 6, 3:00 PM at Pier One Theatre
The week-long Valdez Theatre Conference is held every June in Valdez, Alaska. It draws a majority of its participants from Alaska, but each year there are also attendees from the rest of the country and beyond.
The Conference essentially consists of three parts:
The Play Lab is the heart and soul of the Conference. Each year, submissions from playwrights are solicited, and the writers of the top scripts are invited to present their work in a Play Lab reading. The presentations are responded to by a panel of theatre professionals (Featured Artists) and by the audience. The writers also receive a private consultation with one of their panelists.
Each year there are numerous classes and panel discussions. They include discussions of both the craft and business of working in the theatre. There is an emphasis on classes that involve active participation, as opposed to pure lecture format.
There are evening performances including plays, films, and the nightly Valez Theatre Fringe. The shows presented on the Civic Center mainstage feature work by past and present participants in the Conference, both featured artists/teachers and participants in the Play Lab.
