OCNJ Daily

The Greater Ocean City Theatre Company (OCTC) will hold auditions at 6:00 PM on Tuesday, September 20th or 2:00 PM on Sunday, September 25. Auditions will be held at the 8th Street Recreation Center on the corner of 8th Street and Haven Avenue. Students in 6^th – 12^th grades will have the opportunity to audition for a special fall production that is entitled THE LIVING DRAGON. This original play explores South Jersey’s most famous urban legend: the Jersey Devil. The story goes that Mother Leed’s 13^th child was cursed and shortly after birth, transformed into a creature possessing the features of a horse, bat, and reptile that now haunts the New Jersey Pine Barrens. This family friendly show will capture the spooky season as a talented troupe of student performers takes audience members on a journey to uncover the truth about the Jersey Devil. This production is not a musical and will be a unique acting challenge for the students involved. Performances will be held on October 29 and 30 at the Ocean City Senior Center. More information and audition requirements can be found on the education registration page at www.OceanCityTheatreCompany.com. Questions can be sent to [email protected] or you may call 609-398-1118.
