Aloha Performing Arts Company artistic director Jerry Tracy will revive his portrayal of his fellow Missourian Samuel Langhorne Clemens in APAC’s December production of “Christmas with Mark Twain.”

This time around, the cast includes Clemens’ family, so Tracy will conduct auditions for four female actors at 6 p.m. Oct. 7, at the APAC Loft in Kainaliu, across the street from Aloha Theatre on the second floor of the building housing Kings Daughters Thrift Shop.

The production is set in 1885 at the “Hartford House,” the Clemens home in Connecticut. Tracy will portray Twain as an old man near the end of his life, reminiscing about his glory days.

Roles available are Twain’s wife, Olivia “Livy” Clemens, approximately age 40, and his three daughters, Susy, about age 13, Clara, about age 11, and Jean, between the ages of 6 and 9.

Auditions will consist of interviews and readings from the script. No experience is required. Rehearsals will begin Oct. 26, and the performance run is Dec. 4-20.
