Casting call

Thanksgiving in the Wilderness by Kellie Powell

The first play reading of the monthly play readings. This is a heartwarming and hilariously funny play from the wonderfully talented playwright, Kellie Powell. An all female cast - sorry lads, the only male role has already been cast by a cardboard cutout.

Synopsis

A young woman named Emily, who has given up on meeting Prince Charming, begins a polyamorous relationship with a cynical slacker. She is thrilled when, out of the blue, he invites her to spend Thanksgiving with his family and friends. Emily thinks this means their relationship is becoming more serious, so she is shocked when two of the other guests at Thanksgiving dinner are women her non-boyfriend is also involved with - Jillian, who is only 19 years old, and Claudia, who gets naked on the Internet for money.

Read Rehearsal & Performance Times

A quick couple of read rehearsals on Sunday 29th April at 4:30pm is all that is required prior to the performed read later that evening at 6:00pm. American accents preferred but not essential. All ethnicities welcome. No pay unfortunately, however, snacks provided.

Please have a read of the cast list below, and if you are interested use the form to request a copy of the script.

I look forward to hearing from you.
