ABOUT THE SHOW
You and your friends are invited to the community celebration for Alice Olde, the last remaining family member of the founding colony of our town! Great Aunt Alice, as she is called by many, is hosting a masquerade for her 111th birthday at the recently renovated Starlight Theater. You arrive at the party to find that all isn’t what it seems to be—including Aunt Alice!
THE MISSING is an interactive, immersive Halloween experience that includes elements of haunted mazes, puzzle rooms, theatrical performances, specialty acts, and rituals all wrapped up in a birthday party for an ancient alien. Why have people gone missing, and what is the secret lurking behind this mystical party? THE MISSING explores themes of individualism vs society, inclusion and acceptance for everyone.

ROLES
LIT will be casting 20+ characters, performers 18 years or older of all body types, abilities and identities familiar with scripted work, movement and improvisational skills for THE MISSING. This is a spooky, all-ages Halloween show and performers must be comfortable with the horror lite genre. The Missing will include both scripted and improvised scenes. Performers with strong improv skills and backgrounds are encouraged to audition. LIT is also seeking performers with specialty skills or specialty acts that can be performed as part of their character work and those performers are encouraged to bring those skills to auditions.
Specifically, we are seeking 50+ female identifying performers for the role of Great Aunt Alice Olde.
