AUDITION NOTICE: Rel8Shun


Rel8Shun, A two act play that will be making its premier at the Nanaimo Fringe Festival is auditioning for all parts Thursday, March 15 from 6-9 pm at the Scorpio Theater rehearsal space (Top Floor, 331, 41 Avenue NE)
The play will run for six performances in Nanaimo August 16-26, 2012.  Both transportation and accommodation will be provided.  More details will be provided at auditions.  

Rel8Shun deals with same sex sexuality and the fundamental Christian world view towards same sex relationships.  The play also touches on infertility issues and family issues.  It is geared towards an adult audience with largely adult content.  As we are casting one role with a perceived minor (16-20 years old) it is important that this is understood. 

We will be auditioning for the following roles

Jeff : (Male 30’s) – Recently separated from his wife, he moves in with his new roommate Tyson.

Tyson (Male mid 30’s) – Jeff’s roommate, he is Gay and the brother of Chrissy.

Chrissy (Female 16 – young 20) - Jeff’s Sister. Fundamental Catholic.

Li : (Female 25-35)- Jeff’s new love interest.  Lives in the same building as Jeff and Tyson

Clair : (Female 30’s) – Jeff’s ex-wife.

Those auditioning for Clair and Chrissy should prepare a 2 minute dramatic monologue as these two roles deal with very heavy material.  Actors under the age of 18 will need parents’ permission to accept the role of Chrissy. 

All other roles, please prepare a 2 minute monologue of your choice, either dramatic or comedic.

Please bring a headshot and resume to your audition.

Call backs will take place Saturday, March 17 from 10-1.
