Description:

Casting actress for production of "Dragoness". ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. See the details below. About the project: Dragoness follows two Asian painters from rural Pennsylvania, RAE and LEO, during their first year of a prestigious fellowship under the stewardship of TOBY, their pushy and vocal boss. When white-passing LEO, whose work exploits violence against Asian women's bodies, gains clout as the new local “up-and-coming” Asian artist, RAE collaborates with LEO's ex, STEPHEN, on a takedown article to cancel her rival. Dragoness interrogates the ethics of reinventing art and identity to fit the interests of those in power and asks: what does it mean to represent your community when profit is involved? Rate: $300.00 per gig. Additional info: Weekly commitments will begin immediately. Rehearsals will begin at the end of April. Dragoness will open at the end of May and continue through the first weekend of June. If you are interested, please apply.
