The first open call for actors interested in auditioning for the regional premiere of David Stallings' Gulf Coast drama, Barrier Island, the first play in his "Galveston Cycle" takes place on September 4. Barrier Island is an ensemble drama focused on a tight-knit group of Galvestonians in Capadona's bar during the days leading up to the arrival of Hurricane Ike. The play is a touching drama about making peace with the past and how we decide to stay or go in the face of disaster.
Barrier Island had its world premiere in New York in May 2010 and was produced by Maieutic Theatre Works. This will mark the show's second production. The production will begin table work in September. Rehearsals proper will begin in mid-October. The show is set to run December 2nd - 11th.
We are auditioning for the following roles:
LAURA: early-mid thirties, attractive and strong, if at times cold—has hidden warmth.
DANIEL: eleven, Laura’s child—equally as withdrawn.
NATE: mid fifties, friendly—always with a joke and everyone’s friend.
BOB: sixties—a tough exterior and always in the middle of everything.
CHERYL: early-mid thirties, crass and shameless.
TREY: early-mid thirties, insightful although not well spoken.
STEPH: fifteen, tough and plain.
SUSIE: mid fifties, bright and bubbly with sass.
CARL: thirty, jittery and odd.
For the audition, actors will need to prepare a brief side from the show.
