Theater Casting Call for "Boston Marriage" Play
ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Searching for performers to portray roles in a sparkling turn-of-the-century comedy of manners "Boston Marriage". See the details below. About the play: When Anna accepts a dazzling emerald necklace from a wealthy patron, her newfound independence threatens Claire’s quiet control. Sparks fly further when Claire’s infatuation with a younger woman entangles them both in a web of jealousy, secrecy, and scandal. Mamet’s first play written exclusively for women shatters period norms with razor-sharp dialogue and uproarious wit. At once a celebration of female partnership, a bold exploration of queer desire, and a critique of rigid social hierarchies, Boston Marriage delivers a fresh, fiercely entertaining portrait of women and queer lives on the verge of transformation. Additional information: Some actors may be invited to a callback on Sunday, February 1 between 1pm-4pm. Location: Fort McMurray. If you're interested, please apply.
