Auditions will be from 6:30-9:30 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday.
This Broadway hit play by Pulitzer Prize-winner Donald Margulies is a witty, intelligent look at what happens when ordinary life is refracted through the lens of war.
The following roles will be filled at the auditions:
Sarah: Female, 37-44, a war photojournalist, intelligent, dedicated to her profession, conflicted about her relationship with James and their diverging paths in life. She is a strong woman who is bold and adventurous. She gets what she wants by going for it.
James: Male, 37-44, much like his longtime partner, Sarah, he has worked in high stress war areas as a reporter. Recently traumatic events have led him to desire a life with less conflict and a desire to settle down.
Mandy: Female, 22-26, young, unspoiled, naive, yet wise. Reflects the outsider's perspective. An event planner. She is far from the intellectual liberal world that the rest of the characters live and she is trying very hard to be accepted into their world. Very optimistic and always looking for the happiness and joy that you can find in life.
Richard: Male, 55, a photo editor, so he functions from the business side of things. He is a former love interest of Sarah and then a mentor to her as she progressed in her career. He is close with both James and Sarah, but has recently started dating a girl who is half his age and far from their liberal intellectual world.
Appointments are strongly suggested, although walk-ins will be taken. Walk-ins may have to wait an indeterminate amount of time. Actors are asked to research the play before auditioning.
Performance dates will be Friday, June 5 and Saturday, June 6 at 8 p.m., Sunday, June 7 at 4 p.m., and Friday, June 11 through Sunday, June 13 at 8 p.m.
Rehearsals will be three times a week from mid-April to early June.
