Breakdown
Seeking:
The following understudy positions are available (the onstage roles are cast):
[SARA Understudy]
AVAILABLE POSITION. Character is a woman, 30s. A recent transplant from Minnesota, now living in Florida with her husband Steve, who is on the brink of a huge business deal. Kind, caring, thoughtful, and warm – the sort of woman who delivers home-made pies to new families on the block. In spending time with her neighbor Sam — an introverted intellectual with views nothing like those of her or her husband — she begins to question her belief in God, in her marriage, and in the choices that have led her to this moment.
[KARL Understudy]
AVAILABLE POSITION. Character is a man, 70s. The local exterminator; German by birth, still speaks with an accent. A wise, truthful, and outspoken storyteller; through resilience and sheer will he has worked to over come the horrors of his past.
—
The following roles (and the understudy for both) have been cast. Auditioning performers will be considered as possible (emergency) replacements.
[STEVE]
Role and understudy are CAST. Auditioning performers will be considered as possible (emergency) replacements only. Character is a man, 30s. Flashy hotel developer from Minnesota who has recently relocated to Florida with his with wife Sara. Impulsive, slick, but still somewhat naïve. Believes fully in God’s plan for him. Quick tempered and easily influenced, Steve’s rash business and life decisions leave him with nothing.
[SAM]
Role and understudy are CAST. Auditioning performers will be considered as possible (emergency) replacements only. Character is a man, 30s. A NASA scientist. Still recovering from a recent accident that his face disfigured and his fiancée dead; his fear of further loss has left him wary of forming new emotional relationships. He finds comfort and companionship in his jovial God loving neighbor SARA.
Performers of all ethnic and racial backgrounds are encouraged to attend.
