Announcing auditions for Bunbury Players’ production of
by David Lindsay-Abaire
Directed by Michael Nichols-Pate
All roles are open to performers of all ages, ethnicities, and gender
identities.
Becca – Age range 35-45. Femme presenting. Becca is the central focus of
the show. She has lost her 4-year-old son, and her grief manifests in
purging all traces of her son. Throughout the show, her husband and family
accuse her of grieving unhealthily. Becca has a difficult time asking for
support.
Howie – Age range 35-45. Masc presenting. Howie is the husband of Becca and
is having the most challenging time grieving the loss of his son.
Throughout the show, Howie has difficulty managing his grief, openly
running through his emotions in real-time. Howie feels disconnected from
his wife and constantly looks for a reason to blame for his son’s passing.
Izzy – Age range 25-35. Femme presenting. Izzy is the younger sister of
Becca. She is the only member of the family who has been able to grieve and
reach the acceptance stage of the grieving process. Throughout the show,
Izzy struggles with managing the joy of being pregnant while supporting her
sister’s grieving process.
Nat – Age range 55-75. Femme presenting. Nat is the mother of Becca and
Izzy. She is desperate to relate to her daughter Becca throughout the show,
having gone through a similar loss when her son passed away at 30. Becca
refuses to acknowledge Nat’s loss stating they aren’t comparable.
Jason – Age range 15-25. Masc presenting. Jason, a high school senior,
accidentally hit Becca and Howie’s child, Danny, leading to his death.
Jason spends the show hoping to contact the family looking to be absolved
for his part in their son’s passing. The family struggles to let him in,
leading Jason to try and get more creative with his communication attempts.
