Rate: SALARY $0.00 – $100.00 per gig About the project: ABOUT THE SHOW: OUT EAST: A New Musical Comedy is about the most obnoxious people you're still dying to get to know. Harper is a seventeen-year-old who believes that spending her summer in the Hamptons—“Out East,” if you will—is somehow the end of the world. Her mom is marrying into an old-money family (don’t ask how they got rich, ‘cuz we don’t know), complete with two new stepsiblings and an unfamiliar life. Topped off with a love triangle and innumerable jokes about your least favorite men in finance, Out East is a fresh, Gen Z-centered satire of New York’s elite.

3 roles
[Supporting Role] is charming in an effortless and messy kind of way. He is local, as in he lives in the Hamptons. He tries not to get mixed up in the summer people’s mess. In the context of this show, he fails at that goal miserably. He works various odd jobs within the Hamptons ecosystem to get by. The term “summering” is the bane of his existence. [Harper’s love interest]
) [Supporting Role] wants you to know who she is. You’re her best friend until you’re not… but then maybe you will be again, it changes by the day. If this took place in California, she’d live on Rodeo Drive… but it doesn’t, so she lives on Main Street in Amagansett instead. She wears Roller Rabbit Pajamas to bed every single night, and has done so since the age of 2. Loves attention. [Harold’s daughter. Jasper’s sister.] Sides on Pages 6-7.
[Lead Role] thinks she knows even more than your least favorite English teacher did about the way the world works– she does not. She’s impulsive, a bit of a smart ass, and a little more sheltered than you’d expect from a kid growing up in New York City. To top it all off, she has lofty dreams of being a great filmmaker, bolstered by the belief that simply documenting the “truth” will have Netflix beating down her door. Sides on Pages 1-2.
