About the Author: Jen is passionate about building community and is constantly in awe of the talent and creativity of folks in the Bow Valley. When she’s not producing plays or chairing board meetings you can find Jen out on her bike or cross country skiing.

Editors note: There will be another casting call at the end of July for Pine Tree Players fall production of Bob’s Your Elf. Check back on the Audition page of our website in early June.

Pine Tree Players is excited to announce a casting call for Seminar, a provocative Broadway comedy by Pulitzer Prize nominee Theresa Rebeck. Auditions will take place on August 19 and 22, 2024, and we’re looking for talented individuals to fill multiple roles!

In Seminar, four aspiring novelists enroll in a private writing class with Leonard, an acclaimed literary figure. Under his unorthodox, often brutal guidance, tensions rise as alliances form and break, hearts are tested, and the battle of wits escalates. The play promises sharp humor, compelling characters, and intense moments.

Performance dates are set for November 20, 2024. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this captivating production!
