[NEohioPAL]The Minimalist Theater Company Seeks Male Actor for Paid Project

[David Lemoyne]

THE MINIMALIST THEATER COMPANY is in search of an intense male actor for Ci=
ndy Lou Johnson's "Brilliant Traces."

This is a NON-UNION production, but it is PAID. Yep, I said it... PAID.

Performances will be held at The Grace Drake Center for Performing Arts in =
Medina, Ohio.
The show will run for two weekends in June. Casting will begin immediately.

ABOUT THE SHOW:
The setting is a remote cabin in the wilds of Alaska, and while a blizzard =
rages outside Henry lies sleeping under a heap of blankets. Suddenly he is =
awakened by the insistent knocking of an unexpected visitor =97 who turns o=
ut to be Rosannah, a distraught young woman who has fled all the way from A=
rizona to escape her impending marriage, and who bursts into the cabin stil=
l fully dressed for her wedding. Exhausted, she throws herself on Henry=92s=
 mercy, but after sleeping for two solid days her vigour =97 and combativen=
ess =97 return. Both characters, it develops, have been wounded and embitte=
red by life, and both are refugees from so-called civilisation. Thrown toge=
ther in the confines of the snowbound cabin they alternately repel and attr=
act each other as, in theatrically vivid exchanges, they explore the pain o=
f the past and, in time, consider the possibilities of the present. In the =
end their very isolation proves to be the catalyst which allows them to bre=
ak through the web of old griefs and bitter feelings which beset them both,=
 and to reach out for the solace and sanctuary which only hard-won understa=
nding, self-awareness and compassion for the plight of others can bestow.=

------------------------------

The role of Rosannah has already been cast. Sorry ladies, maybe next time.

Please do not send headshots at this time, only reply with interest to mini=

We are looking for an actor who can compleltey throw himself into this piec=
e. It is a wonderful vehicle for someone to showcase their talent. To be ho=
nest, I would love to do tha part myself, but know my limitations. I would =
much rather direct. So... the part is available. (unless all you guys suck.=
 just kidding)

Final Weekend for "Tape" at Night Kitchen!

Friday and Saturday, Feb 4 & 5 at 9pm
Sunday, Feb 6 at 7pm

Jon, an aspiring filmmaker (played by Shaker Heights resident Justin
Tatum), gets together with his high school buddy, Vince (played by
Greg Wenz of Willoughby) to celebrate the showing of his film in an
area festival. Over the course of the evening Vince forces Jon into a
startling and disturbing confession, throwing into question the events
of one evening 10 years ago. Lorain native Kristen Ashenbach makes her
Night Kitchen debut as Amy, Vince's high school flame.

For tickets and reservations call the Night Kitchen Box Office at
216-932-3396. Tickets are $5 for students and $7 for general
admission. Dobama Theatre is located at 1846 Coventry Road in
Cleveland Heights. Visit them on the Internet at www.dobama.org.

Praise for Night Kitchen's production of "Tape":

"Now receiving an excellent staging by the Night Kitchen...Belber's
taut one-act script is fascinating and often quite funny, as it draws
these two oddly matched friends into a vortex of accusation and
recrimination...From the start to the unconventional curtain call,
this production takes that journey in a totally involving manner." 
Christine Howey, Scene Magazine

"...there are enough plot twists and turns and good performances to
make for an enjoyable evening...see it live with smart area actors for
less than the price of the flick..."  Linda Eisenstein, Cool Cleveland
