Casting kids for "A Slater's Tale" Play. Please see the details below. About the project: Be a part of this special event, a first-of-a-kind collaboration between two local institutions, Rhode Island Stage Ensemble and the Woonsocket Museum of Work and Culture. RISE and the museum are thrilled to present this original, site-specific theater piece from screenwriter Guy Benoit, inspired by the acclaimed docuseries Slatersville from Rhode Island-based filmmaker Christian de Rezendes. A Slater's Tale uses local historical figures and icons to examine what happens when a wealthy family finally runs out of money, exploring the effects of wealth on those who have it, those who want it, those who don't have it and don't want it - and their friends.
