Description:

Seeking boys for “Lost In Yonkers” Play. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Pulitzer Prize-winning Dramatic Comedy set in the early 1940s, Yonkers, New York. Additional info: All characters will be expected to employ the appropriate dialect (1940s Yonkers, New York), and showing that ability in the audition would be helpful. Although there is no singing, dynamic vocal projection and articulation skills are highly preferred, as microphones will not be utilized. The audition sides are attached. Casting will be announced no later than Thursday, January 16. Rehearsals will “officially” begin on February 2 and generally be weeknights but depending on availability, some weekend sessions might be necessary. This show is heavy with dialogue, and actors will be strongly encouraged to utilize various “line-learning” apps and be “off book” as quickly as possible. While conflicts can be worked around, all actors will be expected to attend every rehearsal during “Tech Week” and obviously all performances. Performance Dates – March 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22. If interested, please apply.
