[Capdist-auditions] Narrator Needed for THERE IS HOPE

[Steve Grogan]

***EMERGENCY Audition Announcement for THERE IS HOPE***
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the actress that was cast as our Narrator
had to withdraw. Therefore, I am in major need of some applicants!
**********
“I need to believe there is hope that tomorrow can be better than today.”
~~~Lucy Grossman, THERE IS HOPE
This play is about all the possibilities that tomorrow can hold, as long as
you maintain hope that things can get better. It’s about learning from your
mistakes and becoming a better person. It’s about healing old wounds and
making peace with those you may have hurt…and I need YOU to help me bring
it to life!
SUMMARY: Kevin Seward has been down since his last girlfriend Lucy Grossman
broke up with him. His friend Erwin Gleason invites Kevin to a party he is
throwing. After he has been there for a while, Erwin tells him Lucy has
arrived, so Kevin decides to leave. From this point on, the play tells two
stories: (1) He encounters other partygoers in the present, and (2) we see
flashbacks of his time with Lucy. By the time he makes it to the first
floor, the tension is so thick that the only way to cut it would be if he
ran into her and faced his fear, but what could come of such an encounter?
DRESS REHEARSALS: Friday, 3/28 at 6:00pm; Saturday, 3/29, 9:00am-9:00pm
PERFORMANCE DATE/TIME: Sunday, March 30th, 1:00pm
AUDITION DATE/TIME/LOCATION: We can set up a time together, and this will
be done remotely via Google Meet.
ROLE TO BE FILLED: NARRATOR - We will need someone to read some of the
stage directions because this venue cannot accommodate certain things the
script calls for, such as lighting cues and certain set designs.
IDEAL CAST MEMBER: Female, mid-50s to mid-60s.
NOTE: Although a Narrator is really a genderless character (after all,
there wouldn’t even BE a Narrator for a traditional production), there is a
certain reason why I am looking for a female of this age, which I can
explain to any who want to know.
REHEARSAL INFO: Most will be done via Google Meet, although there will be a
few in person as the performance date gets closer. The venue itself is
available only for the two rehearsals listed above, so I will work on
securing an alternate location.
RUN TIME: 7:00pm-9:00pm.
DATES/TIMES: I have a list of potential dates, which we can go over
together.
CONTACT: Email resume, headshot, and any/all rehearsal dates you could make
to me at stevegroganauthor at gmail.com with the subject “HOPE Audition.”
I’m looking forward to auditioning you!
~~~Steve Grogan
