Audition Notice

A MFA in Dramatic Writing candidate needs three actors to help workshop a
new play.
Character Descriptions:

Clare Grey: 50s, female, just lost husband, has one grown daughter. She has
given her all to being a mother. She is high functioning perfectionist. She
sings a portion of requiem in Celtic (It would be fantastic to have a singer
but not absolutely required for this reading). She is an alcoholic who
hasn't drank for the past two decades. Her long buried secret is now
threatening to come into the light. She takes to the bottle. Drunk scenes
required.

Persephone: 50s, female, Clare's best friend from the age of 11. She has
become so famous she is known only by her first name. She is being honored
at the Kennedy Center for music. She composes music during the play on a
guitar. (Guitar skills not required for this reading) She has a wicked wit.
She has had many lovers but never married. She is vibrant and dramatic and
dedicated to Clare. She shares Clare's secret.

Kate Grey: 20's, female. Clare's daughter. She is a journalist with PBS and
travels internationally. She is frank, assertive, high functioning,
perfectionist, ambitious, and is haunted by Clare's secret even though she
does not know what it is.

Dates: TBA during the dates of August 17-23, 2021.
Location: TBD as soon as possible. Check back here for details.
3 two hour table reads. The second and third table reads will be with
revisions.
