This week starts what I’m sure will be a richly rewarding process: Casting.
Such a multi-cultural play is always a great excuse for me to meet new actors from diverse backgrounds. BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES is written for 5 actors: one Latina actress, two Indian actors (one of each gender), and two roles which may be either African-American or Caucasian. I expect the process will last through the end of March. Plenty of time for me to see a variety of talented folks.
In the meantime, I’m working with the design team on creating the world for the play to inhabit. Sam Gordon (Lighting Design) and I are doing a walk-through of the Flamboyan theatre this week so that we can get a better idea of how to configure the space and use light. Resident Artist Michael Tester and I have already gotten off to a great start with costume ideas. More on all this as it develops.
For now…I’m gearing up to have a great series of auditions this week. If you’re interested in auditioning…I’m happy to receive your inquiry (with headshot/resume, please). Just send it to my email address, found under the “ensemble” section of the site (if I list it here I’ll get swarmed with spam).
THANKS!

Hello! I am interested in your casting call for Before your eyes. I am an East Indian actor looking for work. I can send headshots and a resume if it is not too late. Please let me know. Thanks
