The Local Actors Guild of Saratoga is proud to announce their auditions for One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest…with a twist. With special permission from Samuel French Inc. and the estate of Dale Wasserman we are able to cast our production gender-neutral…what does that mean. We realize that Theater is a place of acceptance and we want anyone who may not fit into gender normal standards to be able to have a place to perform live theater. In a world of gender fluidity we are welcome everyone to audition for any role they like. We are hoping this will bring out actors that might shy away from auditioning because they don’t feel “they fit a particular role.” We will also be color blind casting a well.
Auditions are March 22nd – 7:30pm at the Saratoga Arts Center, 320 Broadway, Saratoga Springs, NY. Rehearsals will begin the first week of April and the show runs two weekends starting May 13th.
Actors will read from sides provided. Please bring a headshot and resume if you have one. If there are any questions please email localactorsguild at gmail.com
McMurphy has a criminal past and has once again gotten himself into trouble and is sentenced by the court. To escape labor duties in prison, McMurphy pleads insanity and is sent to a ward for the mentally unstable. Once here, McMurphy both endures and stands witness to the abuse and degradation of the oppressive Nurse Ratched, who gains superiority and power through the flaws of the other inmates. McMurphy and the other inmates’ band together to make a rebellious stance against the atrocious Nurse.
