Seeking Talent for Two Upcoming Short Plays
ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ADMITTED. Directors are currently in need of male and female performers for two upcoming plays called: "Sit" and "Inconvenient Attraction". More details are below. About the plays: "Inconvenient attraction" play: Synopsis: Inconvenient Attraction follows four roommates as they host the most legendary housewarming party this town has ever seen. Each engaged in their own relationships, sexualities, and gender dynamics, the behind-the-scenes of hosting a party gets increasingly messier throughout the night as the events and conversations unroll. Are the roommates able to express themselves truthfully and establish their boundaries before the end of the night, or will their lack of communication be the breaking point for years of friendship? "Sit" play: Synopsis: Phil and Chloe are ready to take the next step in their lives and buy their own home, somewhat to the chagrin of their longtime roommate and childhood best friend Teddy. Two weeks before moveout day, the three roommates find themselves kidnapped and tied up in their own kitchen. Their lives together flash before their eyes as they contemplate their own mortality and the things that bind them together. More importantly though, they need to figure out who did this to them. And why? Additional information: Location: TBD. For auditions, please prepare a contemporary monologue of your choice in any genre. Please, see the attachment. If you're interested, please apply.
