New Edgecliff Theatre announces auditions for their production of RACE by David Mamet. The production will be directed by Daryl Harris. Auditions will be held Sunday January 25, 1-4pm with call-backs on Monday January 26 at 7pm at 1622 Blue Rock Rd.
Multiple Award-winning playwright/director David Mamet tackles America’s most controversial topic in a provocative new tale of sex, guilt and bold accusations. Two lawyers find themselves defending a wealthy white executive charged with raping a black woman. When a new legal assistant gets involved in the case, the opinions that boil beneath explode to the surface. When David Mamet turns the spotlight on what we think but can’t say, dangerous truths are revealed, and no punches are spared.
We are casting the following roles:
- Jack Lawson – a white attorney in his forties or fifties
- Charles Strickland – a white business man in his forties or fifties
- Susan – a black woman in her twenties
The role of Henry Brown has been cast.
Rehearsals begin March 15. The performances run April 9 through 25.
