Theatre--Auditions

Auditions will be held at Cité des Arts on June 9th and June 11th at 6:00pm for two original plays written by Steven Cooper.

TO PROTECT AND SEVER
This is a short comedy about the threat of terrorism, domestic spying, and the education of our youth. This show is to be presented at the Hub City Theatre Festival the first week of July.

Characters:
Sgt. McRuffle: Man- 30- 40
Teacher: Male or Female- 25-35
Kid 1: Male or Female- 13-18 (actor/actress can be older, but must look young)
Kid2: Male or Female- 13-18 (actor/actress can be older, but must look young)
Two Swat Team Members: Males 20-35

GNOSTIC COINCIDENCE
This is a full length play about two strangers becoming friends, their dreams, and the lessons they desire to learn. This show will run at Cite des Arts from August 14th-28th. Rehearsals will be in July and early August.

Characters:
Buzzbee: A very aware man of the street who is fighting an inner battle.
Male: 28-40
Ralph: A business man who is reaching a crossroads in his life.
Male: 28-40
Love: A muse that guides the characters in their dreams.
Female:20-40
Competition: A shadow character that challenges the characters in their dreams. Male: 20-35

The right age for the actors playing the characters is not as important as what
the actor can bring to the characters. Mr. Cooper is looking for the right ensemble to bring this play to life.

WHEN: June 9 and 11 at 6:00pm
WHERE: Cité des Arts, 109 Vine St., downtown Lafayette between Jefferson St. and Third St.
