Seeking MALE ACTOR with strong movement ability.

Open Pit is workshopping a new one-act play called Leave a Message (Après le Bip), written by Geneviève Doyon & Aislinn Cornett, as part of Nakai Theatre's Pivot Theatre Festival.  

We are seeking one male actor/mover for the role of Zack.   The play is a two-hander, with Claire as the lead. The role of Claire has been cast and will be played by Geneviève Doyon.   

Character Descriptions: 

     ZACK – 23, Small town boy, poetic yet awkward.

    CLAIRE – 25, Francophone, grew up in big cities, confident and brutally honest.

The festival is from January 19th-26th, 2013 in Whitehorse, Yukon.  Accommodation, a  wage, and a one way flight will be provided.  

Within the next year, Open Pit intends to produce the play fully in Whitehorse, and then tour.  The actor playing Zack may have the opportunity for further employment beyond this workshop, but that is not a guarantee. 

To apply:

Please email the director, Jessica Hickman, at jessica@openp.it and include a cover letter indicating your interest/experience, a resume, and a photo.    

Thank you!
