Auditions: Tuesday, March 08, 2011

This page contains auditions posted on Tuesday, March 08, 2011.

It is so helpful to hear feedback about traveling for auditions and/or booked work. Personally, it would make a difference to me whether I was traveling for a potential job, or a confirmed job. I know many casting directors are willing to accept video submissions, so this is a thought if you are unable or unwilling to make the commute for a potential role.

Have you ever submitted a video audition in place of traveling, and if so, was this an option listed in the audition post, or was this an option you brought up to the casting director?

Continue to share your thoughts on traveling for potential and/or confirmed work. How far do you travel for auditions? How often do you travel to audition?

If you are a fan of the blog, please share this with actor friends. If you have any feedback for me on how to improve my blog, share this with me so that I may work on improving the blog.

Thanks.

Play description:
Roy and Irma have been married for twenty-five years. They have two children. They live in the heartland. They're respected members of their church and their community. When Roy and Irma go to their pastor for marriage counseling, Roy confesses that he's a woman trapped in a man's body and would like to have a sex change. As would be expected, Irma throws Roy out of the house. But their bond as a couple is stronger than either of them imagined, and eventually Irma finds a way to make peace with this unfathomable situation and accept her transformed husband as her lifelong mate. They not only have to wrestle with the meaning of their marriage, they must deal with the delicate dynamics of their family as well. Roy is burdened by his father's stubborn assessment of his manhood and his mother's sad acceptance of life's cruelties. Irma, in the midst of menopause, is struggling with her adolescent tomboy daughter, Patty Ann, who is raging against the injustices of her own budding hormones. And the grown and absent son, Wayne, who has always bemoaned his father's emotional limitations, is now outraged by his father's desire to be a woman. Overseeing it all is Roy's legendary grandmother, who left her husband and son to pursue her own sexual and emotional needs. The play explores the complexities of marriage, family and deconstructs the very notion of love.

Characters:
Roy - middle-American and middle-aged. Around 45 years old
Wayne - Roy's son, early 20's, a roadie.
Patty Ann - Roy's daughter, 13, a tomboy. We are auditioning both males and females for this role.
Reverend Muncie - their pastor. 30-50 years old
Roy Senior - Roy's father, a farmer. Around 70 years old
Em - Roy's mother, a farmer's wife. Around 70 years old
Frank - Roy's boss at the John Deere plant. 35-55 years old
