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.
