Description:

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. Kids needed for Theatre Play "Mockingbird". Please see the details below. About the project: Caitlin is an 11-year-old on the autism spectrum.

He was the one person who helped her cope. Now she is alone with her grieving father and a cacophony of children at school. She struggles with empathy, what facial expressions mean, and why a drawing might have more than one color. Additional info: The show will run on June 29th, June 30th at 7:00 pm, and July 1st at 2:00 pm. Performance space to be announced. Rehearsals will be: Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 6:00-9:00 pm and June 24th-July 1st (rehersal times TBA) If you are interested, please see the attachment and apply.
