SUMMARY:Reiser Lab Auditions: IN SPITE OF YEARS OF SILENCE
DESCRIPTION:Casting Call for Reiser Lab Round 11 project\, “In Spite of Years of Silence.” Auditions will be held Monday\, March 9\, 6:30 – 9:30 PM. \nShow Description\n“In Spite Of Years Of Silence” takes the audience on a journey through the interweaving narratives of three children and their fathers\, as they communicate their stories through poetry\, music\, and dance. Each narrative discusses the characters’ (sometimes shared) experiences with the concept of Blackness\, faith\, community\, and interpersonal relationships\, as they delve further into the messy and complicated\, yet beautiful tapestry of Black parent and child relationships. “In Spite Of Years Of Silence” seeks to leave audiences with the message that the journey to love\, community\, and healing in Black parent-child relationships are not exactly straightforward\, but are worthwhile undertakings… especially in a world that continues to devalue them. \n\nCharacter Descriptions\nFather In Hat \nBlack man\, between 28-40 years old. A little nerdy\, and talks a little too much. Outgoing and self-confident\, but internally yearns for a piece of himself that he can’t quite name. He matches that missing piece of himself to his father\, but that\, ultimately\, may not be the final piece of the jigsaw puzzle. \nMother In Chain\nBlack woman\, between 28-40 years old. Smart\, witty\, and independent. She’s learned growing up that self-reliance is the only way through most problems. She has also learned\, whether right or wrong\, that the only person that you can hold accountable is yourself. And she has held herself accountable for everything\, even when something wasn’t her fault. She wants to learn forgiveness\, of herself and others\, but is having difficulty coming into that. \nFather In Black\nBlack man\, between 28-40 years old. Hip-hop\, cool. Silent and subtle\, but not because he doesn’t have anything to say; rather\, he’s been transformed by grief. Under the hard exterior is a soft\, but opinionated individual. He would rather be that person all the time\, but isn’t sure how. \n\nHow to Audition\nAuditions will be scheduled in 15 minute increments. If you’re interested in auditioning for a role\, please email your preferred time slot between 6:30 – 9:30pm to Director\, Kirsten King (therealkirstenking@gmail.com) and CC Writer\, Ryan Jones (gohomeryan@gmail.com) to be assigned an audition slot. Sides and additional info will be sent to those who sign up for auditions. Spoken word artists\, lyricists\, poets\, actors who resonate with poetry\, and performers of diversity are encouraged to audition.
