Actors Needed For Production Of "Puffs"

Audition notice for "Puffs, Or: Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic". Actors wanted. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. See the breakdown below. About the project: "For seven years a certain boy wizard went to a certain Wizard School and conquered evil. This, however, is not his story. This is the story of the Puffs… who just happened to be there too. A tale for anyone who has never been destined to save the world. This clever and inventive play “never goes more than a minute without a laugh” (Nerdist) giving you a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes just trying to make it through a magic school that proves to be very dangerous for children. Alongside them are the Puffs, a group of well-meaning, loyal outsiders with a thing for badgers “who are so lovable and relatable, you’ll leave the theater wishing they were in the stories all along” (Hollywood Life). Their “hilariously heartfelt!” (Metro) and epic journey takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a boy wizard hero can be." Puffs is not authorized, sanctioned, licensed or endorsed by J.K Rowling, Warner Bros. or any person or company associated with the Harry Potter books, films or play. Additional info: Puffs does contain some strong language. NOTE: The production team is sensitive to the controversy around J.K. Rowling’s public statements about transgender individuals. Puffs is a parody and is not associated with J.K. Rowling or Warner Brothers. Directors want a diverse cast and a production that respects that diversity. Individuals of any gender may be cast for any roles. You must be willing to play the gender associated with the character (e.g., Cedric is described as male but may be played by a female or non-binary actor); Megan is described as female but may be played by a male or non-binary actor. Wayne and Sally kiss once as do Megan and Oliver. Callbacks if needed: Wednesday, October 25, at 7:00pm. Rehearsals will begin the week of October 29. Please be prepared to identify all known conflicts; directors will try to organize the rehearsal schedule based on cast and crew availability.
