Subject: CASTING for dark comedy BAD JEWS - Arizona Onstage Productions

 


Arizona Onstage Productions is proud to present the Arizona Premiere of Joshua Harmon's Award Winning dark comedy BAD JEWS.  The New York Times deemed this play "best comedy of the year". 

Please send resume and headshots to:  Kevin Johnson  kjohnson.stage@gmail.com

This production will run the May 6th - 23rd.  Honorarium.  Please notice and be respectful of the casting - this is a very young cast - and be prepared to be able to play someone under 30 with comfort. 

Characters:

DAPHNA FEYGENBAUM - 22, Liam & Jonah's first cousin. 2/3 body, 1/3 hair. Thick, intense, curly, frizzy, long brown hair. Hair that clogs a drain after one shower. Hair you find on pillows and in corners of the room and in your refrigerator six months after the head from which it grew last visited. Hair that could not be straightened even if you had four hours and three hairdressers double-fisting blow driers. Hair that screams: Jew.

LIAM HABER - 25. Daphna's cousin: his mother is the sister of Daphna's father. Wire-rim glasses. U of Chicago Asian studies Ph.D. student. Former Fulbright scholar in Japan. Has as much of a sense of humor as an overdue library book.

JONAH HABER - 21, Liam's younger brother. Sometime-UVM sophomore. Less lanky than his brother. Less brainy. More brawn. More heart.

MELODY - 24, Liam's girlfriend. Short, stick-straight blonde hair. Which she wears with a barrette. To be extra cute. Mousy. She looks like someone who would have been abducted when she was nine but returned to her parents unharmed. Works for a non-profit.

Arizona Onstage Productions is proud to present the Arizona Premiere of the Award Winning dark comedy BAD JEWS.  It will be directed by Artistic Director Kevin Johnson.
