Auditions

Well, it seems like we're auditioning for the men's roles. When we did the reading last November, it was with seven of my friends. Four women, three men and me in the roles.

Director DJ Sullivan and I discussed the full production and thought we'd have a better show if we opened up the male roles to other actors. This was a tough decision as I was one of the male actors but I really want to work on the production from somewhere other than on stage.

So! We're having auditions on December 13th from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. We're looking for four roles...

Richard
Lead, successful divorce lawyer who fears love, lives with Veronica 30s-40s. Richard is basically myself; fraid of love because he was never taught how to do it. He has a lot of great lines and gets to come full circle in both acts. He very nearly carries the show but has help.

Mark
A police officer who writes love songs, engaged to Maria but ends up with Luke, 20s-30s.

Luke
A fairly well known, good-looking actor, lives with Kate, ends up with Mark 20s-40s.

Mark and Luke are the engenues in the play. The true lovers whereas everyone else is trying and failing. They live lies long enough and decide to go for true love over the false stuff. These are small but powerful, pivotal roles. They should good looking and manly.

John
A contracts attorney, was married to Veronica and now to Ann, ends up with Kate 30s-50s. His is the role of a two-time looser who tries a third time with another two-time loser, Kate. Has a great role and gets to feel a lot of emotions. I will play this role in the film (haha).

These actors can be any ethnicity as long as they are good! Know someone? Have them e-mail six.kevin@yahoo.com. They can research the roles here and/or ask me for a script.

Thanks!
