"Now and Then" Stage Play Searching For Actors
Non Equity auditions for play "Now and Then". Looking for actors. Please see the details below. About the project: "Sometimes what happens after last call just might change your life. One night in 1981, just as Jamie is closing the bar where he works, a desperate last-minute customer offers him and his girlfriend Abby two thousand dollars to sit and have a drink with him. Who wouldn’t take it? As the trio swaps stories and Jamie considers the decisions he faces about his musical career and his future with his girlfriend Abby, the young couple begins to realize that this older man is unusually invested in their choices … and the reason he gives them is completely unbelievable. But when a very displeased second stranger arrives, the unbelievable begins to look like it just might be true. Now and Then is a heartfelt romantic comedy about the costs of the choices we make, and the people who make them with us." Additional info: Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script.

4 roles
Bartender and aspiring pianist. Attractive in a regular-guy way. Sincere, hardworking, very much in love with ABBY. Piano player a plus, but not required.
A bit beaten down but good-natured. Easy to talk to, well-spoken, sincere, and very intent on his mission tonight. Husband of 35 years to WOMAN. He is desperate. Piano player a plus, but not required.
IHOP waitress and one-time English major. Funny, smart, and very much in love with JAMIE.
Strong, direct, loving; a little coarse. She is MAN’s wife of 35 years. No one knows her like he does, and no one knows him like her. She and MAN bicker but there is a bedrock of love there. They’d do anything for each other, and no one can hurt either of them like the other one can.
