Description:

The Women's Theatre Alliance seeks actors for its annual New Play Development Workshop Scene Showcase. Actors will be involved in the final stages of the workshop series, which features the work of seven incredible Chicago-based playwrights. Each playwright and director team will present 10-15 minutes of a brand new play. This is a wonderful opportunity to help develop new work! (Some scenes may have adult themes and language.) We are seeking actors who can play the following: African American men ages 18-25, African-American women ages 18-80, Caucasian men ages 20-40s (breakdancing experience a plus), Caucasian Women ages 20-50, Latinx man age 50s, Latinx Woman (Columbian) age 18, Women of Color ages 20-80, and women of any ethnicity 18-40s (movement experience a plus).

The performance will be Wednesday, July 10, 2019 at 7:30 PM at The Greenhouse Theatre, 2257 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60614. Tech is a required commitment on Monday night, July 8th. Individual directors will coordinate a rehearsal schedule.

Auditions will be held at Roycemore School, 1200 Davis Street, Evanston, IL. Plenty of parking is available, and it's a few blocks from the Davis Street Purple Line stop. You will be asked to provide a list of conflicts from May 11 - July 10th, so please bring your calendar!

Material To Prepare:
Auditions will consist of cold reading from the scripts. No monologues will be required. Please come early if you wish to review the sides, as they will not be available prior to the audition date. There will be no callbacks, and you will be notified of casting within the week.
