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.
