You heard that the audition was for a Christmas Carol. A very normal fairytale to say the least, as the concept was basically the same as you would expect it to be. A person hates Christmas, and its up to a bunch of ghosts to help this individual by showing this character the life it lived in, what the people it knows its doing, and what will happen in the future.
However, there was a certain problem with the play. The Scrooge in this play was actually female, which had nothing to do with the actual play at all. More so, this woman wasn't old at all, she was at MILF age. In fact, most of the characters were actually were female as well, and not just Scrooge. Luckily, there were some characters that have kept their genders as you saw in the script lines, but you were curious of how this will all stand out, and wondered why your theater teacher would make this certain change.
