Performers Needed for "The Minutes" Stage Play
The company is holding auditions for "The Minutes" Play and looking for performers, please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. About the project: Declared an 'official history of American Horror' by the New York Times, The Minutes is a scathing new comedy about small-town politics and real-world power set at a city council meeting in the fictional town of Big Cherry. The story exposes the ugliness behind some of our most closely-held American narratives while asking each of us what we would do to keep from becoming history's losers. The Minutes made its Broadway debut in April of 2022 receiving both Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize nominations for Best Play. Additional info: Show date: Oct. 24 - Nov. 3, 2024 If possible, bring a picture and resume to the audition. Callbacks are scheduled for August 4th at 9am but may not be necessary. All roles demand strong comedic chops and the ability to balance the ridiculous with the dramatic. Please apply if interested.
