Coming in May

Auditions for MCP's The Haunting of Hill House
Are Set for May

Director Darren Lee and Producer Tess Catlin are excited to announce auditions for MCP's Fall Show,  The Haunting of Hill House. 
Hill House is a chilling tale that follows four people as they stay in a supposedly haunted mansion. ​Cut off from the outside world by its remote location and shunned by all who know its forbidding and sinister reputation, Hill House has remained empty and silent except for the daily visits of its grumbling caretaker, Mrs. Dudley. Its isolation is broken by the arrival of Dr. Montague, an investigator of supernatural phenomena who has been granted a short lease by the present owner. His mission is to delve into the morbid history of the house and to come to grips with the occult forces that have made it uninhabitable for many years. He is joined by three others, all unacquainted, but all having their particular reasons for accepting Dr. Montague’s invitation to share his Hill House sojourn.

Auditions will be held 
Saturday, May 17th, from 12:00 Noon to 2:00 PM, 
and Monday, May 19th, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM
at the Mason Community Playhouse,

The show's characters include:

Eleanor Vance  (25-35) - ​A troubled young woman who has been caring for her dying mother. Pretty, but plain compared to Theodora. Conservative and somewhat naïve. She hopes her visit to Hill House will enable her to start a new life.

Mrs. Dudley  (60-70) - ​The housekeeper and cook at Hill House. Stern and uncommunicative. Her only concern is sticking to the letter of her agreement as caretaker of Hill House.

Theodora (25-35) - ​Dark, attractive, and rather exotic looking. A creature of mood and sudden impulse. Much more worldly than Eleanor.

Dr. Montague  (55-65) - ​An anthropologist with a belief in parapsychology. Professorial and intelligent with a genuine concern for people. Fairly soft and thoughtful, as opposed to his wife.

Luke Sanderson  (30-35) - ​A rakish young man who is a member of the family that owns Hill House. Has good looks and the disturbing charm of a man with a well-educated but usually empty head.

Mrs. Montague  (50-65)  - ​A large, formidable woman who fancies herself a medium. Loud, dominant and overpowering, in great contrast to her husband.

Arthur Parker  (40-60) - ​Mrs. Montague’s companion and assistant in her psychic endeavors. A meek but intense-looking man of indeterminate age. Completely loyal to Mrs. Montague.

Come be a part of the fall show in our 2025 "Spirited" Season!
