William Shakespeare's Star Wars - Verily, A New Hope
Project Overview
Thank you to everyone who auditioned. Over the course of 4 months, I gathered 160 individual audition submissions through two different casting websites. As promised, the final cast list will be posted with the actors from both websites listed. I've had to go back over the play several times to see if the extra's characters would flow easily, so some listings may be a little different than what was auditioned for.

Chorus

The chorus serves as the background narration for the play. The lines are from the prologue and an enhanced version of the introduction from the movie.
"It is a period of civil war.
The spaceships of the rebels, striking swift
From base unseen, have gain'd a victory o'er
The cruel Galactic Empire, now adrift."
"In time so long ago begins our play
In star-crossed galaxy far, far away."
Voice Actor
Darth Vader

These lines are from when Vader first sets foot on the Rebel ship at the beginning of the movie.
"Be thou not so surprised. For well thou knows
A mercy mission this was not, this time.

A heart with revolution at its core."
"And prithee, speak thou well, or speak thy last,
For fairer necks than thine my hand hath crush'd."

This bird would surely fly."

But nothing more of that."

I am combining all of these characters together because 1. They are all aliens with their own languages and 2. They all have short enough parts that one person can play all of them.
Jabba's lines are in line 2 and occures during a conversation with Han.
The Jawa lines are in line 3 and occures when they meet Owen and Luke.

"This golden droid has been a friend, 'tis true,
