"With Unshaded Eyes" Independent Production Seeks Actors
Non-Equity Audition for "With Unshaded Eyes" Independent Production! Seeking actors for a staged reading of a new play. See more details below. About the project: With Unshaded Eyes is a play exploring ease of willful ignorance provided to us in the midst of a harsh political climate and how our silence affects others. In a dystopian world where you can buy your way into a virtual world called the Ideal and walk amongst those left in the real world with no awareness of them, two people from opposite sides of these realities meet and begin to learn the ways of the other's life. But in a world that is literally built on division, is such a thing as unity possible? Rate: No Pay Additional info: There is a possibility of a rehearsal read-through over zoom beforehand, depending on actors' availability, but the only required date will the performance day. Casting is willing to cast characters outside of the characters' originally assigned genders. If interested, please send your headshot, resume, and a video of a dramatic monologue.
