Auditions for "A Christmas Story" show. Actors wanted. Please see the breakdown below.

About the project: 
"Humorist Jean Shepherd’s memoir of growing up in the midwest in the 1940s follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher and even Santa Claus himself at Higbee’s Department Store. The consistent response: “You’ll shoot your eye out!” All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family’s temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys’ experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie’s father winning a lamp shaped like a woman’s leg in a net stocking; Ralphie’s fantasy scenarios and more. A Christmas classsic!"

All genders, races, and experience levels welcome.

Ralph as an Adult

Gruff and grumbling on the exterior, Ralphie’s Dad has a good heart. He doesn’t overtly show it, but he 100% loves his family. A blue- collar guy, he usually expects the worst out of most situations.

The Old Man

She is the secret engine that runs the family, keeping the household together with a smile–despite bickering children, limited funds, an x- rated lamp in the living room window, a cranky furnace and a crankier husband. Vibrant, warm, affable–but not a pushover–she is always busy, especially anytime she is in the kitchen, and even more so at Christmastime! The actor who plays this role must be very comfortable with children.

Mother

Ralphie’s 5th grade teacher, a seemingly stereotypical 1940s educator–prim and proper, stern when necessary–though warm and even humorous when the situation merits it.

Miss Shields

The Santa Claus at Higbee’s Department Store is ill- tempered, slightly inebriated and very unhappy with his job–nothing like the “Jolly Old St. Nick” one would dream of meeting! He gets rid of each kid as fast as he can and judges them on their way down.

About the project: 
"In Alabama in the 1880s, the wealthy Keller family has just given birth to a baby girl, Helen Keller. Captain Arthur Keller and his second wife, Kate Keller, summon a doctor to treat Helen for a fever. Soon after, they learn that Helen has lost her ability to see or hear.
Five years pass, and Helen is now a little girl. She can’t communicate with anyone, and so she spends her days horsing around, misbehaving, and sometimes attacking other children. Her family does very little to change her behavior—in fact, Kate sometimes rewards Helen with candy even when she’s been bad. Helen’s half-brother, James Keller (from Arthur’s first marriage) is cynical about Helen’s chances of ever learning how to read or write, and suggests that Arthur send Helen to an asylum.
Even though the Kellers have summoned dozens of doctors to teach Helen, Kate remains cautiously optimistic. She reaches out to a young woman named Annie Sullivan. Annie Sullivan, the audience learns, grew up in Massachusetts. She and her beloved brother, James Sullivan, had a rough early life, and spent years in an almshouse. When Annie was still young, James died, and Annie seems to blame herself for the tragedy. She believes that she broke her promise to her brother—to take care of him always—and vows never to break another promise to a child.
Annie was virtually blind as a child, and she later attended the Perkins Institute for the Blind. There she underwent an operation to regain her sight. Her teacher at Perkins, Anagnos, taught her a great deal, and inspired her to become a teacher, too. Although Annie has regained her sight, she often wears smoked glasses in order to protect her sensitive eyes from bright lights.
Annie arrives at the Keller household, where she meets Helen. To the Kellers’ surprise, Annie uses a more hands-on, aggressive approach than any of her predecessors, getting down on the floor to interact with Helen and at times punishing Helen harshly for misbehaving. Most importantly, Annie begins by teaching Helen the sign language for things like “dog,” “doll,” and “cake.” It’s important for Helen to memorize these signs, Annie explains to a skeptical James, so that in the future she can understand that these signs symbolize real things. Helen is initially reluctant to cooperate with Annie. She hits Annie and, at one point, locks Annie in her room and hides the key. Annie is frustrated, but refuses to leave.
As the days go on, Annie succeeds in getting Helen to cooperate with her, but she realizes that she’ll never get Helen to learn sign language unless she can exercise total control over her pupil, independent of Arthur and Kate. Arthur is skeptical of Annie’s teaching methods, and at one point contemplates sending her back to Massachusetts. With Kate’s encouragement, however, he agrees to let Annie stay..."

"Speech & Debate"

Solomon

"Speech & Debate"

"Speech & Debate"

Teacher/Reporter

To play Adam, a charming wide-eyed child of privilege. Physically attractive. Naturally seductive.  
Also plays, Leo, a guarded, damaged young man but underneath his messy exterior, he’s a young man aching for connection and kindness. A sex worker now, intermittently homeless and in the throes of addiction, Leo trusts no one because his life has taught him this is the only way to survive. 
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 1/Adam McDowell/Leo

To play multiple roles, including: Jason #1 – high school science teacher, bookish and sweetly nerdy. The kind of person who doesn’t speak at parties until they’ve had a couple of drinks and then you can’t shut them up. He has the ability to look at an argument from every possible angle. He is a steady ship on increasingly stormy seas. He often takes on the role of peacemaker.
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 2/Jason #1

To play multiple roles, including: Young Henry, appears as a memory or the shadow of the adult Henry Wilcox. Traumatized by what he witnesses during the mid-1980’s, at the start of the AIDS epidemic, he moves through the world cautiously, with his emotional guard resolutely up. The only person who can pierce his defenses is Young Walter, with whom he has fallen hopelessly, desperately in love.
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 3/Young Henry

To play multiple roles, including: Young Walter appears as a memory or the shadow of the adult Walter Poole. Directors also encounter him at the start of the AIDS epidemic. A deeply feeling, intensely loyal, innately principled young man. Outwardly, he is as gentle as a cherry blossom. Inwardly, he’s steel-spined and indestructible. Whereas the epidemic almost crushes Henry, it reveals Young Walter’s true strength and resolve.
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 4/Young Walter

To play multiple roles, including: Toby's Agent a budding young power agent at one of the big agencies. Thrives on protein shakes and hot yoga. Not without compassion for Toby but increasingly frustrated by his client’s erratic behavior. Knows how to gently pet with one hand and cut throats with the other.
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 5/Toby’s Agent

As Tristan an ER physician who spends his days dealing with trauma of all kinds. He is calm under pressure and knows how to diffuse the most volatile situations. He can be droll and wickedly funny when he wants to (and he often does). He can also expertly dissect thorny, seemingly impossible problems with reasoned, blazingly intelligent thinking. His observations are never like speeches—instead, they are examples of a dazzling mind at work, working out problems in real time. 
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 6/Tristan

To play multiple roles including Jasper, a “social justice entrepreneur,” who works in the political realm as a movement influencer. He is wickedly smart if also a little self-righteous and blind to his own privilege. He has a good heart and good intentions. When we meet him, he’s an amiable doofus with boyish charm who hasn’t really matured past the age of 22, which is the average age of most of his boyfriends. The 2016 election hardens him in unhealthy ways. 
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 7/Jasper

To play multiple roles including Jason #2, a first-grade teacher who often treats the world as if it were his classroom. Big-hearted, joyful, and deliriously idiosyncratic. Jason will often hijack a serious conversation with his decidedly out-of-the box thinking. The fact that he is able to coherently argue his somewhat baffling points of view is evidence not only of his fertile imagination but also his rock-solid intellect. Jason is a perceptive and compassionate man.
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 8/Jason #2

Deeply compassionate. Tender. Loyal. Undervalues himself and doesn’t realize how special he is. Tested along the way by heartbreak and loss, he uses these disappointments as fuel to build the growing fire inside him. Doesn’t know that he’s the lead of this play. Once he does and makes a decision to act bravely and decisively, he discovers he has the ability to change the world to an extent far greater than anyone knows.
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 9/Eric Glass

A raging whirlwind of ambition, sex appeal, self-regard, self-doubt, and ultimately self-destruction. Charming. Verbose. Funny. Sharp-tongued. A self-made man who charges through life as if he were indestructible—ultimately discovering that he is not. He knows the glory of tremendous heights and the devastating lows of self-annihilation. A star that burns too brightly and is extinguished too quickly. He can delight you and appall you.
"The Inheritance"

Young Man 10/Toby Darling

To play E.M. Forster, the eminent British author of Howards End and Maurice. A spiritual and literary guide to a group of young men attempting to tell the story of their lives. Straight-laced. Proper. Occasionally playful and even joyfully wicked. And Walter Poole, Henry's gentle, honest, partner. 
Note: As this doubling covers both British and American characters, the role(s) requires an actor extremely deft with both accents.
"The Inheritance"

E.M. Forster/Walter Poole

A gay billionaire Republican real estate developer. Walter’s partner. Charming, fiercely intelligent and emotionally inaccessible. He survived the AIDS epidemic by closing himself off to the needs of others. In trying to ignore his trauma he has lived a life completely divorced from his emotions, from joy, from connection to others. But the desire for happiness does not come without cost—and he is forced to finally face his past.
"The Inheritance"

Henry Wilcox

A haunted woman. The mother of a young man who died of AIDS in the mid-1980 and who she was estranged from, she has spent her life atoning for her personal failings. Flinty, pugnacious, no-nonsense. She is tasked with caring for Walter’s house and, by extension, all its secrets as well as some of her own.
"The Inheritance"

Margaret

18+ to play 17 - transgender masculine child of Paige and Arnold; sibling to Isaac. Max is now homeschooled by Paige and is extremely isolated in this suburban town. Max wants to escape hir hometown and forge a life in a more progressive environment.

He was dishonorably discharged after getting caught using a methamphetamine. Isaac seeks to reassert his father's values of order & cleanliness, despite Paige's wishes. 
"Hir"

Isaac Connor

Cisgender (identifying as your biological gender); Max and Isaac's mother and Arnold's wife. After years of suffering abuse from her husband Arnold, Paige revels in the liberation from her oppressive marriage and housekeeping obligations after Arnold's stroke. She sees freedom in losing the label of wife, and enforces house rules that are the direct opposite of Arnold's (he demanded order, she thrives on mess). She dresses Arnold in old nightgowns.
"Hir"

Paige Connor

Cisgender (identifying as your biological gender); Isaac and Max's father and Paige's husband. Arnold was an angry and violent man, but has had a stroke, which has affected his ability to communicate verbally and care for himself. His home used to run entirely by his iron fist, but now he is dependent on Paige and Max to care for him and they don’t. He often tries to escape from the house, but never succeeds. When he feels something, he feels it with no censor. 
"Hir"

Arnold Connor

Brother of Boo and brother-in-law of Reba, funny and sarcastic at times, supports everyone, but doesn’t resent it.
