Brilliant Traces-- 1 MALE needed

Type: Non-Union Theater

Project Begins Jan 17, 2012
Project Ends Mar 18, 2012

Project Description:
As the New Yorker describes it, "BRILLIANT TRACES is one of those plays in which a man and woman battle it out in a small enclosed space, alternately repulsing and seducing each other."

This play deals with how humans experience loneliness-- we are literally alone and unknown or we are surrounded by people who can't actually "see" us.

We plan to build a full rehearsal schedule once we cast this role. As of now, we will rehearse Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday evenings with other evening rehearsals to be built in after casting Harry. The benefit of having a small cast is to be flexible with our rehearsal times and places. So if scheduling is your concern, please do not hesitate to audition and state your conflicts/worries on the audition form.

We will begin rehearsal ASAP. The show runs March 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, and 18 with only matinee performances on Sundays. Tech rehearsals--March 6 and 8.

Audition/Interview Dates:
Thursday January 12 from 6-10pm

Callbacks or second audition/interview?
No

Audition Requirements:
Please prepare one contemporary monologue. Be prepared for a non traditional audition. Wear or bring (if you prefer) something comfortable to move in.

SIDES will also be EMAILED when audition slot is confirmed.

Describe any monetary compensation:
None

Character Breakdown / Project Needs
One Male needed to play:

HENRY HARRY, in his mid/late twenties. Feelings have been tamped down hard and deep in him, but they are there.
