"Deathtrap" Audition for the Theater

Wilton, CT, United States
ID: 272348Exp: 11/12/2024
Description:

Auditions for "Deathtrap" play. Directors are looking for actors. Please see the details below. About the project: A comical play about theater. Playwright Peter Austin anxiously awaits the reviews of his new play after opening night. With his career on the line, he shares his big First Night with his “best” friend, a television star, his novice producer, his doped-up diva, his genius but crazed director, a lethal drama critic, and a fresh-off-the-bus coat check attendant on his first night in Manhattan. It’s alternately raucous, ridiculous and tender—and proves that sometimes the biggest laughs happen offstage. Additional info: Show Dates: February 7th & 8th at 8pm, February 9th at 2pm; February 14th & 15th at 8pm and February 16th at 2pm; February 21st & 22nd at 8pm. Please apply, if you're interested.
