Teen Boy Needed for "Marvin’s Room" Play

Fair Lawn, NJ, United States
ID: 557102Exp: 9/29/2023
Description:

Auditions for the award-winning play "Marvin’s Room". Looking to cast a teenager. See the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: "Marvin’s Room takes its title from the space family patriarch Mavin Wakefield spends all the hours of his days, now that he’s reached the end stages of his life’s journey. He and his sister Ruth are tended to by his eldest daughter, Bessie. They’re the unchosen family who chose to remain together. In Ohio, Marvin’s youngest daughter, Lee, is struggling to raise two teenage sons alone - Charlie, a bookworm who’s failing out of school, and Hank, current resident of a detention facility, put there after attempting to burn down the family home. When Bessie is diagnosed with leukemia, she and Lee are forced to reconnect. Might Lee or one of her sons be a match for Bessie’s needed bone marrow transplant? What’s to become of Marvin and Ruth if not? While its themes are tinged with sadness, Marvin’s Room is laugh-out-loud funny and oh-so-wise about how each of us persists - in families we didn’t choose, in bodies that betray us, in lives we don’t recognize, and in the face of each of life’s little and not-so-little indignities and disappointments." Additional info: Sides will be given to actors at the audition. If you have a headshot and resume, please bring a copy of each with you. If you do not have a headshot, directors may ask to take a photo of you at the audition. This show has a place for performers of all ages. If you’re even considering auditioning, they want to see you there! Marvin’s Room will have three performances: Friday, December 8, 8:00 p.m. Saturday, December 9, 8:00 p.m. Sunday, December 10, 2:00 p.m. If you are interested, please apply.
