Description:

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Casting call for "I Never Asked For A Gofundme" play, looking for Equity actors. See more details below. About the project: In reference to the character descriptions below - most characters we encounter currently are in the binary and are written with he/him or she/her pronouns. But however limiting the descriptions are, our casting seeks to be as inclusive as possible and we invite gender non-conforming, genderqueer, transgender and non-binary actors to submit for the roles they most identify with. We will also list race/ethnicity when specific to the character but are otherwise seeking all races and ethnicities. In addition, we will list disabilities when specific to a character, but are otherwise seeking actors with disabilities as well as non-disabled actors for all roles. (Source: Emily Tarquin, Kevin Kantor and Marilee Talkington) Additional info: All roles will be understudied. Please prepare the side from the show that aligns with the role you’d like to be considered for. You can only read for one role at this EPA but will have a chance to tell who else you’d like to be considered for on an audition form. The COVEN is the only track with two sides to do.
