Actor Needed for Spike in VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE at Oxford Area Community Theatre

OXACT_logoReopening our search for a “Spike” for our next production, VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE.

Spike is a “Chiseled, flippant, devil-may- care boy toy. A preening millennial, Spike is a young actor who pays just enough attention to Masha to keep her satisfied. He does not seem to have any urgency for anything, despite the fact that he has little to show for his career thus far. But he’s got his looks, a captive audience, and believes the rest will be laid out all on a plate for him when the time comes.

As fair warning, Spike does disrobe down to his underwear in the play, and maintains that status for several pages on stage. This actor needs to be confident in his body image.”

If you or someone you know fits the part, please contact contact Scott Shriver shrivers@miamioh.edu, or Kayleigh Swatzell karetherford@hotmail.com.
