"The Birds" Modern Play Seeking Actors of All Backgrounds

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Auditions for "The Birds" modern play. Directors are seeking actors of all ages and backgrounds. See more details below. About the project: Based on a short story by Daphne du Maurier and adapted for the stage by Conor McPherson, “The Birds” tells the tale of two strangers who take shelter in an isolated house from relentless masses of attacking birds. Another refugee arrives with news of the outside world, but her presence brings discord. Paranoia takes hold in the makeshift fortress, posing an internal threat to match that of the birds outside. The story also is the basis for Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film of the same name. Additional info: Locations: PALOS HILLS, IL Those auditioning should prepare a short monologue from a modern play. While not preferred, cold readings will be available, if needed. The show will run from Feb. 27 to March 8 with rehearsals adjusted based on cast schedules.
