The Actors Theater of Orcas Island at the Grange will be holding auditions for actors for the 10th Annual PlayFest: seven 10-minute plays, all written by local playwrights. Performance dates are set for the last weekend in April and the first weekend in May.

Auditions are Wednesday, March 11 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, March 15 at 2 p.m. at the Grange. Contact Cara Russell, at lobby_drifter@hotmail.com for more information.

Twenty roles need to be filled, both male and female, ranging from 15-70 years old. They are specifically looking for a male or female of Asian descent.

“Even if you have never acted before, we encourage you to come and audition,” says Russell, who is leading the auditions.

The plays are available to read at the front desk at the Orcas Island Library, and those auditioning are encouraged to read the plays beforehand. The 2015 plays are: “A Most Auspicious Day” by Kristen Wilson; “Confessions of a Toilet Paper Hoarder” by Amy Russell; “Peggy” by James Wolf; “Storytime” by Mary Bayley; “Tenacity” by Michele Griskey; “The Bedroom” by Ron Herman; “The Certified Letter” by Kathi Ciskowski
