ENSEMBLE THEATRE ANNOUNCES AUDITIONS FOR :
"HUCK & HOLDEN"

Receiving *RAVE* Reviews for both it's *NEW YORK* and *LOS ANGELES*productions,
Rajiv Joseph's "Huck & Holden" tells the story of Navin, an Indian college
student who's fresh off the boat and trying to remain focused on his studies
while the temptations of America and college life start beating down his
door.
When Navin falls for Michelle, a young African American woman, he finds that
his perceptions of the world begin to expand --and crumble.
Called "...a coming of age story with comedy, pathos, and a distinct
emotional core" (-offline.com), "Huck & Holden" is a romantic comedy that
wrestles with cultural stereotypes, racism, *The Kama Sutra*, *The Catcher
in the Rye*, and how loosing our innocence doesn't always make us wiser.
