AUDITION NOTICE 

The Arizona Rose Theatre will be presenting a virtual (Zoom) production of Ayad Akhtar's winner of the 2013 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Disgraced, on Saturday October 24 and Sunday, October 25. 

 

We are casting for the following roles: 

Amir (lead): 40, middle eastern ancestry, assimilated corporate lawyer in New York estranged from his Muslim faith 

Emily (lead): Amir's wife, early 30s, white, lovely, artistic 

Isaac (featured): gallery curator, 40s, white, cultured, refined, smart 

Jory (featured): 30s, lawyer, African American, Isaac's wife, super-smart, commanding 

Abe ("Ah-bay," featured): early 20s, middle eastern ancestry but totally Americanized presentation, practicing Muslim, idealistic 

 

 

Rehearsals will all be online and will begin around September 20. Schedule is somewhat flexible, but usually weekday early evenings (Tucson AZ time) and weekend afternoons. There will be small stipends, but unfortunately we cannot manage Equity contracts — however, happy to work with actors who can secure waivers for this kind of performance. 

If interested, please email the director, Mark Klugheit at mklugheit@comcast.net with a headshot and a resume, with a copy to Arizona Rose Theatre at azrosetheatre@gmail.com If you would like to submit an audition video please forward it to the theater's Dropbox at https://bit.ly/3g3INkr . (Please make sure your video includes your name and send an email also to azrosetheatre@gmail.com and mklugheit@comcast.net with matching name and contact info.

Feel free to email or message with any questions, or to set a time to speak by phone and discuss the play. Auditions will be held via Zoom on one or two days during the first week of September.
