Be it known, novice playwright Wil Magee is assembling a cast for his dramatic work, an as-yet untitled tale of two star-crossed young lovers and their misfortunes suffered at the hands of a heartless villain!
Two of the three principal characters are already cast. This is an open casting call for female performers seeking to be part of the exciting world of the stage! The female lead, Lady Nirielle, is a pure and virtuous woman, chaste of morals, keen of wit, high of birth and beloved by all who meet her.
For an audition and costume fitting, please speak with Wil Magee of Hlint.
There are also openings for some minor roles: Townsfolk and Demons. Three actors are needed to fill these roles. The actors will be playing both parts (Townsfolk and Demons), so versatility is a must!
The Cast of Characters:
Sir Larimus, a brave and noble night, beloved by all, suitor of Lady Nirielle (q.v.)
Lady Nirielle, a gentle and pure lady, beloved by all and especially Sir Larimus (q.v.)
Anomax, a wretched and vile conjurer of the blackest sort, conspirator and nemesis
Townsfolk of The Vale, the town ruled by Lady Nirielle's father, Lord Arthos
The Demon Horde, conjured by Anomax as part of his nefarious scheme
The date and time of this dramatic performance is yet to be decided, pending final casting and rehearsal times. It will be free admission, but donations will be gladly accepted and, indeed, warmly welcomed! Further details concerning the dramatic work will be forthcoming and shall be posted in view of the public.

Well met fellow patron of the stage!
I, Ashley Windsong, am afraid to say that I am neither Knight, nor Demon, and as such, will not be much help to you. However, should your work as a playwright continue, I am sure our paths will cross.
The starstruck lover plot is quite common, and I look forward to see how well you pull it off. I wish you well O' Brother of the Stage.
Good luck, and may the marks pay you well!

Ah! Fellow thespian!
My goal is to build a travelling theatre troupe. This initial dramatic work is but a stepping stone, you see.
And an actual knight or conjurer is not really needed, as you well know! That is where the acting comes in!
I have the principal characters cast now, at least on paper. It remains to be seen if they have the "chemistry" that I need for this work to be successful. We shall have rehearsals soon. All I need now are the three bit-part actors, and it will be ready for pre-production!

Don't you have to be a woman to be a .... oh nevermind ...
It seems you have some high goals, and with any luck you will be able to meet them. I however, am simply not the knightish sort. Getting me to act a knight would be like getting Cromwell to pretend he is a bard!
Anyway, should things get going, I will do my best to key you into some business. We bards must stick together aye?
