[Capdist-auditions] LAST CHANCE- Confetti Stage Announces Auditions for “Stage Kiss” by Sarah Ruhl

[Confetti Stage]

Confetti Stage is excited to announce auditions for “Stage Kiss” by Sarah
Ruhl, directed by Sean T. Baldwin, assisted by Marissa Lounello.

Art and life imitate one another, and the line between the two occasionally
grows thin. What happens when a married actress finds herself cast opposite
an ex boyfriend as romantic leads in a long forgotten, badly written
melodrama? Staged intimacy reignites the spark between them, and she
suddenly finds herself torn between her husband and her great lost love.
“Stage Kiss” is a comic love letter to theatre people and the strange
things we do for our art.

We are looking for actors to fill the following roles:

She – A woman in her late 30’s to early 40’s. A married woman with a
teenage daughter who previously dated He. A capable professional actor.
Plays Ada Wilcox in the play within the play.

He – A man close in age to She. His current relationship is much less
serious than She’s. Plays Johnny Lowell in the play within the play.

Director – Adrian Schwalbach. Neurotic. Good enough at his job, but
convinced he’s great at it.

Kevin – the play’s reader and understudy. Young and eager to impress.
Openly gay. Plays the butler and the doctor in the play within the play.

Harry – She’s husband. A levelheaded banker who’s accustomed to and annoyed
by his wife’s indiscretions. Always the voice of reason.

Laurie – He’s girlfriend. A caring teacher who is hurt by He’s affair. The
“mom friend” who needs to take care of everyone. Plays Millicent, an
over-the-top heiress in the play within the play.

Angela – She’s straight-talking daughter who’s as annoyed with her mother’s
affairs as her father. Thinks everything sucks. Plays the maid in the play
within a play. Seeking an adult actor to play younger.

Auditions will be held on December 17 and 18 at 7 PM at the Albany Masonic
Temple, 67 Corning Place, Albany, NY 12207. Sign-ins begin at 6:30. Actors
are asked to prepare a one minute comedic monologue of their choice for the
audition. Auditions will consist of monologues and reading sides from the
script.

Performances will be held at the Albany Masonic Temple February 23-25 and
February 29 – March 3. Thursday, Friday, and Saturday shows are at 7:30 PM
with Sunday matinees at 2:00 PM. Tech/dress rehearsals begin February 17.
Tech and dress are mandatory for all actors. The regular rehearsal schedule
will be determined based on cast availability.

“Stage Kiss” features staged intimacy throughout. All actors must be
comfortable with this. We will be working closely with an intimacy coach
during the rehearsal process.
