Description:

The company is holding auditions for "TAKING LEAVE" Show and looking for performers, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: TAKING LEAVE is a drama, with humor. Shakespeare professor Eliot Pryne is packing what he thinks is a suitcase and leaving what he thinks is a hotel. In the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, he is "taking leave" from the real world and imagining a new one. His three daughters struggle to know what his next steps will be. A heartwarming story, filled with unexpected but compassionate humor, this rich dramatic comedy is about living and dying, and the strangely comedic value of both. Rate: All actors will receive a stipend of $500 Additional info: This will be a multi-racial production. There is nothing to prepare for the auditions. Auditions will be held in a group setting, with auditioners doing cold readings together for the director. TAKING LEAVE will run March 22 - April 7, 2024. Rehearsals will begin the week of February 4, 2024. Rehearsal schedule TBA. Please apply if interested.
