Looking to cast a 15-year-old boy for "A Distinct Society" Theatre Play. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: The border between Vermont and Quebec runs straight through the Haskell Free Library & Opera House. After the Muslim Ban goes into full effect in 2018, families begin using it as a meeting place, facilitated by the kind Quebecois librarian, Manon. Tending to the people who use the library as a safe space has become part of her DNA—be it a teenager desperate to escape school or the US border cop who likes to flirt with Manon. When an Iranian father uses the Canadian side to visit his daughter studying on an F1 visa in the States, though, Manon’s loyalty to the building, her beliefs, politics, and independence are all challenged in life-altering ways.
