A Word from the Director
Be sure to review the content warning in the Google Form. I encourage you to carefully consider your comfort with this material before auditioning.
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR: I'm invested in discovering actors who can ride the play's stark and abrupt shifts in tone. In the audition room, I want to see your ability to bravely exploit contradiction, and how you find the comedy inside the horror and the tragedy inside the comedy, sometimes in the same breath.
Mark your calendars and come audition!
Cumberland Players is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion in the casting and encourages actors of diverse backgrounds, ages, body types, and underrepresented groups to audition. We are looking to build a diverse, open minded, and high energy cast. Please note, this is a Non-Equity, non-paying production.
