ROLES AVAILABLE / CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS:
LOGAN – Female, Caucasian looking, the high school drama teacher that’s always pushing the envelope in potentially inappropriate ways. Earnest about theatre and proving herself. “Woke,” vegan, nauseated at the mere mention of turkey. In her note on casting, playwright Larissa Fasthorse writes: “People of color that can pass as white should be considered” and we are very much encouraging actors who identify in this way to audition. Actor must have strong comedic skills & an adventurous sense of play.
JAXTON – Male, Caucasian looking, yoga practitioner/actor. Politically correct to a fault, a big one. He’s that confident guy everyone loves, but his logical PC thinking takes weird turns. Self-described “vegan ally.” In her note on casting, playwright Larissa Fasthorse writes: “People of color that can pass as white should be considered” and we are very much encouraging actors who identify in this way to audition. Actor must have strong comedic skills & an adventurous sense of play.
ALICIA – Female, brunette, Caucasian looking but has looks that would have been cast as ethnic in 1950s movies. Without guile. Sexy and hot, but not bright. In her note on casting, playwright Larissa Fasthorse writes: “People of color that can pass as white should be considered” and we are very much encouraging actors who identify in this way to audition. Actor must have strong comedic skills & an adventurous sense of play.
CADEN – Male, Caucasian looking, the academic. Awkward elementary school history teacher with dramatic aspirations but no experience. His dream is to have his plays performed by semi-professional actors. In her note on casting, playwright Larissa Fasthorse writes: “People of color that can pass as white should be considered” and we are very much encouraging actors who identify in this way to audition. Actor must have strong comedic skills & an adventurous sense of play.
