Description:

ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED. Seeking a boy for "A Veil So Heavy" play. See the details below. About the project: Directed by Maryn Renee Christensen, this play in the round follows the stories of the Greek tragedies Antigone and Medea simultaneously. The King, Creon, in both of these shows is now the same man and his family is being compromised on both fronts - his son by Antigone and his daughter by Medea. This story of women empowerment is retold through the eyes of Apollo, the God of music and poetry, and his muses - the goddesses of storytelling. Using heavy influences of live jazz music and being set in the 1960s during the Vietnam War, these women must fight for what they believe in, even if it means death. Additional info: Callbacks will be held on the night of August 15th. An initial cast meeting will be held on September 12th, with rehearsals starting September 18th. Will rehearse Monday through Friday in the evenings, with actors expected attendance on days they are called. The show runs November 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 19, 20, 21st - with matinee performances on the 14th and the 21st. Rehearsal and performance locations will be announced. (Rehearsals will be in Utah County and performances will most likely be in Salt Lake County) Please slate your name and location. Prepare a 30-second to 1 minute contemporary dramatic monologue (for preparation for the monologue, you can draw inspiration from the original Greek tragedies: Antigone and Medea). Furthermore, if you have any musical or dance talents please prepare a 30 second to 1 minute piece to showcase your abilities. All of these should be in the same video sent to in the form of an unlisted YouTube video link. If you are interested, please apply.
