"Clybourne Park" Stage Play in Search of Men and Women

Auditions for "Clybourne Park" play. Actors needed. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. See the breakdown below. About the project: Clybourne Park explodes in two outrageous acts set fifty years apart. Act One takes place in 1959, as white community leaders anxiously try to stop the sale of a home to a black family. Act Two is set in the same house in the present day, as the now predominantly African-American neighborhood battles to hold its ground in the face of gentrification. Written in 2010, Clybourne Park was inspired by Lorraine Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun. Both shows, along with a third, Beneatha’s Place, by Kwame Kwei-Armah comprise “The Raisin Cycle”, which highlight the social issues and housing policies affecting the Younger family, and ultimately America..
