Casting Teen Girl For "Fish" Play
Seeking teen girl for "Fish" play. See the details below. About the project: 2016, London. Seventeen-year-old Karya is navigating her brother’s unresolved disappearance. When her mother’s outrageous theory about his whereabouts starts to gain traction, Karya decides to put it to the test. With her best friend, she devises a twisted online experiment, setting a hook in the darkest corners of the internet. But what begins as a search for answers quickly spirals into something more sinister than she ever expected. By turns sharp, tensely funny, and tender, Fish is a darkly comedic coming-of-age story about grief, girlhood and games that go too far. Additional info: Accent note for all roles: The play is set in London in 2016, and all actors should be able to work confidently in a contemporary British accent. The accent world should feel lived-in, specific, and urban (not heightened RP or generic “stage British.”) For the teenage characters especially, the language has speed, bite, slang, and rhythm, so actors should be comfortable with a London/Greater London teenage register, with dialect work to be refined in rehearsal. BREAK: 1:00PM - 2:00PM. Sign-ups will end early due to the Memorial Day Holiday. First Rehearsal: September 1st, 2026 Previews begin: September 26th, 2026 Opening: October 11th, 2026 End of announced run: October 25th, 2026 Possible extension through: November 8th, 2026 Actors should prepare a brief monologue. Please bring a physical copy of your resume and headshot stapled together. An Equity Monitor will be provided. If you are interested, please apply.
1 role
British-Turkish. Sharp, funny, guarded, not very femme, Karya is emotionally overburdened. She is trying to survive her brother’s disappearance while managing her mother’s grief and increasingly extreme theories. Clever and dry on the surface, she is lonelier and more vulnerable than she lets on. Her journey takes her from scepticism into obsession, as she begins testing a dangerous online theory for herself. Witty, comedic chops. Fast, dry, natural, not posh.
