"The World You Thought" Play Casting Actors
Come audition for "The World You Thought" a full-length play. Seeking cast. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. See the details below. About the project: SUMMARY: Eight teenagers have different reasons for attending summer camp for spiritual growth - but they quickly find themselves confronting each other and the nature of their beliefs. Ronnie, an unsure girl escaping from a stressful home life, finds herself drawn to Gryffin, who promises to show her a world she didn’t know existed and awaken her inner power. But she’ll have to contend with Lizzy, Gryffin’s girlfriend who isn’t ready to share her true love’s attention - or to let Ronnie learn his biggest secret. As the campers are guided through exercises and rituals designed to help them crystallize their beliefs, opinions begin to clash and lead to dangerous rifts and revelations. The potent cocktail of no parents, no cell phones, and a brand new world of ideas creates an environment ripe for manipulation, betrayal, and hurt. No one will emerge unscathed as Ronnie and the other campers attempt to control the uncertain magic of their transformation and discover what the truth is - and who’s telling it. Additional info: Auditions will involve cold readings from the scripts. If you are interested, please apply.
2 roles
19. Head counselor at the camp. After an unsuccessful suicide attempt a couple of years ago, she’s an uncommonly clearheaded young woman who is dedicated to helping other young people find their way in life. Prickly and a bit formal in her attempts to serve as a role model, she’s protective, empathetic, and a deeply moral person. Loves nature, doesn’t suffer fools or tricksters.
18. One of the camp’s counselors. Grew up in an extremely religious Christian environment but realized he was gay when he was 16. After his former church kicked him out because of his sexuality, he is questioning his Christian beliefs and trying to build a new spiritual foundation. Optimistic, burdened, funny, fumbling, prone to messy experiments in the name of self-discovery. Energy level at baseline 140%.
