*REMINDER!*



*THEATER VOICES will hold auditions for a staged reading of I AND YOU, by
Lauren Gunderson, directed by Michael Kennedy.*



*Location*

Steamer No. 10 Theatre, 500 Western Avenue, Albany - corner of West
Lawrence Street.



*Times*

    Sunday January 18 7:pm-9:00pm

    Monday January 19 7:00pm-9:00pm



Please arrive as close to start time as possible and be prepared to stay
until the end of auditions.  Actors will be asked to read scenes from the
play.



*Synopsis:*

On the night before a class assignment is due, Caroline, homebound and
critically ill, and Anthony, a popular and exuberant high school student,
explore the mysteries of Walt Whitman's *Leaves of Grass*. Initially
cautious, they become willing to risk sharing their deepest fears and
greatest hopes, leading them to a moment of reckoning in which they must
fully understand Whitman's line "your very flesh shall be a great poem."



*Cast Breakdown:*



ANTHONY (Male, must be able to play age 17). He is neat, poised, and mature
for his age. He’s an “A” student, a team player, a nice guy. He’s a bit
awkward around girls, takes his homework very seriously and when he likes
something, like Jazz, he’s all in.



CAROLINE (Female, must be able to play age 17) She has been homebound with
a progressive illness for a long time. She is cynical, over it, rarely lets
a stray “feeling” near the surface.



*Please note**: The characters in I AND YOU are from different ethnic
backgrounds. Actors of all ethnicities are encouraged to audition.*



Production Dates are March 27, 28, 29, 2015 (Fri.-Sun.) at Steamer No. 10
Theatre, Albany.



Rehearsals will begin in early February.
