This September, Backstage Academy of Performing Arts-Skibbereen, will hold auditions for a youth production of Shakespeare’s ‘The Merchant of Venice’.   This will be a modern production of the play and as the play deals with money lending, debt, interest, mercy and forgiveness, it should prove very topical.

Auditions will be open to 14-19 year olds and no previous acting experience is required as the cast will be put through their paces by the teaching staff at Backstage, which is based at St. Josephs National School and begins its third year in Skibbereen this September.
