Casting Teenagers for "Mockingbird" Play

Audition for "Mockingbird" Play. Actors should be 16+. Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Caitlin is an 11-year-old girl on the autism spectrum. Not all things make sense to her. Emotions are mysterious, and voices are almost always too loud. Suddenly, she must grapple with the unthinkable: a mass shooting has taken her brother away. 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 to understand empathy, what facial expressions mean, and why a drawing might have more than one color. We see the world from Caitlin’s point of view. We struggle as she does. We also take comfort in the times when she finds a friend, draws a multicolored mockingbird, and can finally cry for her brother. Additionla info: For virtual auditions, please submit a dramatic monologue. If interested, please apply.
