      Announcing auditions for /Lonely Planet/

In Steven Dietz' play, Jody owns and runs a map store, which he seldom 
leaves. Carl, his longest friend, comes and goes as his various 
professions need him. Written in 1995, Lonely Planet is an AIDS play 
that never mentions "AIDS." This is not your typical "Everyone has AIDS 
and we are all dying" play so often associated this disease. Instead it 
is the struggle between two courses of thought: should we hide ourselves 
away from the world and all of its imperfections or should we fully 
immerse ourselves and hopefully make a difference? Full of witty, snappy 
and, at times, poignant dialogue, this play is the perfect challenge for 
to adventurous and adept actors.

*Show Dates:* October 28 - November 12, 2011
Fridays & Saturdays at 8

*Audition Dates: *

*Monday, August 8, 2011 - 7:30pm to 9:30pm

*CHARACTERS: *
JODY: 30s-40s (Should be older than Carl). A recluse of sorts, his 
obsession with maps is his "window" to the world outside.
CARL: 30s, a quick witted and energetic "man about town."  He is Jody's 
oldest customer and friend who also becomes his catalyst to finally 
leaving the store.

*NOTE ABOUT CASTING:*
The director is looking for two enthusiastic and uninhibited actors. 
Actors able to play 30s-40s, all races and looks are encouraged to audition.

*AUDITIONS: *Please come prepared to read from the script and to do some 
improv. While not "necessary," a one-minute, memorized monologue would 
be greatly appreciated by the director. Resumes and headshots welcome, 
but not required.

Directed by David Malinowski
