Auditions for our Annual Series of Short Plays will be held Wednesday August 7 and Thursday August 8 from 7-9p at Riot Act, Inc’s Studio 305 in the Center for the Arts.
Join us for Auditions! Everyone welcome!
Wed. Aug. 7th and Thurs. Aug. 8th Riot Act, Inc. will be holding auditions for its Annual Series of Short Plays.
Annual Series of Shorts includes 3 plays with 3 different directors. The performances will run in Riot Act, Inc’s studio Sept. 11-14. Actors will work with individual directors to schedule rehearsal times.
This year, all three plays are selections from our Annual New Play Festival. You will have the opportunity to work with the playwrights during rehearsals. A change this year, the audience will choose the winners via vote.
Selected plays are:
Indigo Siren by Angel May Wise formerly of WY, now residing in CO
In an apocalyptic world, Indigo is never sure who she can trust. After an extended time sequestered she begins to question her very reality. Is she losing her mind? Or is she just prepared?
2 female teens, 1 adult woman (20s to 50s)
Miasma ByVanessa Bowie of CO
An abuela and her grand-daughter see plastic in a new light when the Oil and Gas industry- personified as a Vampire comes knocking.
1 male adult, 1 older Latina woman (can play a grandma), 1 young Latina woman (teens to 20s)
Asher Seeks a Higher Calling by Joanne Rowland of UT
Asher and Theophilus, a pair of mismatched friends living in Jerusalem two millennia ago, want each other’s help and approval. A certain amount of disagreement eventually results in an acceptable compromise.
1 male (40s or older), 1 male (can play 43), 1 male (can play 35), 1 male (voice only)
All three plays are excellent examples of our talented regional writing pool and Riot Act is excited for the opportunity to bring these new creations to life on the stage. There are great roles for both men and women, young and old, and everyone in between!
