Help Bring Chicken Little to Life!
A familiar tale meets the colorful world of lucha libre, Mexican professional wrestling, in Chicken Little and the Legend of El Pollo Diablo, an original play by C. Lynn Johnson.
Ahead of the play’s February 2027 world premiere at EVCT, performers ages 8–18 are invited to apply for a free developmental reading with playwright C. Lynn Johnson and director Rio Sureno.
Selected participants will read the script aloud and discuss the characters and story with the creative team, helping a new play take shape. All backgrounds and experience levels are welcome, including young people new to EVCT.
Friday, November 20 • 5–8 PM
EVCT Studio • Free to participate
To apply: Submit a short video introducing yourself and reading the provided passage. A simple phone recording is welcome; no memorization is required.

The reading is separate from January auditions for the full production. Participation is not required to audition and does not guarantee a role.
