Greater Company Players’ Legally Blonde auditions happening Thursday

Every year, students of Regis College and Lasell University come together to put on a show. This year, The Greater Company Players, the schools’ newly-renamed combined drama club, has chosen to produce the hit Broadway musical Legally Blonde. The show follows a preppy sorority girl, Elle Woods, on a mission to find love at Harvard Law School. She proceeds to hone her legal skills and find professional success in the murder trial of a workout guru.


Regis College Registrar’s Office Coordinator Julia Burke has served as the director of the Greater Company Players’ productions for two years, and explained the process students go through to get to their auditions. Flyers were posted across both campuses advertising the fall show, and the 10-minute time slots available for auditions on September 11. 


Students are able to choose which school’s campus they will audition on, with Lasell’s performers going to the Yamawaki Arts Center at their designated time. All students auditioning are asked to prepare one full song that they are comfortable and confident singing.


Greater Company Players E-Board member Evie Crudele assures all students interested in joining the drama program that any concerns surrounding auditions may be matched by comfort. As someone who has been a part of the group's productions for four years, Crudele has auditioned for many different parts, and shares that the process can be stressful, but also very rewarding.


“The audition process is something I have had to get used to throughout the years. At Lasell, it is such a welcoming community where I don’t feel as much pressure when it is time to audition for shows,” said Crudele.


If the Legally Blonde audition process produces any remaining concerns or worries, Burke openly suggests that students with additional questions should reach out directly to her. As Director, she emphasizes that she wants students to be comfortable and understand that the process is fairly flexible, with the main goal being the happiness of anyone who wants to participate.


“No one should be held back from an opportunity because they aren't sure of the specifics,” said Burke.
