Girl meets boy. Girl loathes boy. Girl and boy fall in love. It is a truth universally acknowledged that Jane Austen’s most popular novel is also one of the greatest romances of all time. Pride and Prejudice returns to the stage in this new adaptation presented in an intimate setting. Upon first meeting the reticent Mr. Darcy, Elizabeth Bennet finds him cold and arrogant while he disapproves of her family and social standing. Is it his pride and her prejudice—or her pride, and his prejudice? Brought together by a series of events beyond their control, Elizabeth and Darcy must reconsider their first impressions.

Actors Needed for A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE at WIT

MISC_Casting call2The cast for WITs A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE is almost complete.  We need to fill two small male roles before we can announce the entire powerful cast.

Pablo – Stanley’s poker-playing-bowling-buddy does not have to be Hispanic.  He doesn’t have to have any particular physical attributes.  If you are or know a guy who is a natural comedian or a lover of improv, this is a fine role for him.  The director is open to all kinds of fun with Pablo.  If you happen to be tall and dark complected, that’s wonderful, but not necessary.

Doctor –  This is a small role for an older man.  The doctor enters at the end of the play to pick Blanche up off the floor and escort her to the hospital.  He’s the one to whom Blanche says, “I always depend on the kindness of strangers.”

A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE runs July 15, 16, 19, 22, 23 at The Avenue Stage, 520 Fairfield Ave, Bellevue, KY 41073.
