Auditions are open to anyone and everyone. Some roles may require specific ages and physical characteristics in keeping with the playwright’s intentions or within limitations of our performance agreement (age, gender, weight, race, etc.).
The director of the show has the final decision on casting the actor that they feel is best for the role in any case.
If cast, you will be required to become a member of Monroe Community Players. Memberships start at $20 and may be purchased HERE. Membership is valid from July 1- June 30. There is also a $10 participation fee for each production you are cast in to assist in defraying the costs of production.
Monroe Community Players maintains a policy of open casting at all auditions. This means that unless announced otherwise prior to auditions, you will be auditioning in front of a group of others who are auditioning and may be asked to perform along with them.

On Christmas Eve, Santa Claus’ oft-forgotten demon partner, Krampus, is visited by the ghost of Jacob Marley, who hopes to get him to see the error of his ways. But the joke’s on Marley: Krampus loves his life! So what if his method for punishing kids who misbehave lost him the respect of his family, friends and the elves who work for him? He doesn’t have a problem with that, and spying on the past, present and future isn’t going to change his mind!
