> Cleveland Public Theatre’s Big [Box] series is hosting Heads Up  
> Productions’ “gripping” 1,000 Hills.  1,000 Hills follows three  
> tourists who find themselves in Rwanda just as genocidal violence  
> breaks out.  As tensions mount, the tourists have their emotions and  
> morals put to the test.  With genocide as a backdrop, the show asks  
> the question:  What are our responsibilities to each other in a time  
> of crisis?
>
> Auditions for the play will take place in the Balch Street Theatre  
> (home of CATAC and New World Performance Laboratory) located at 220  
> S. Balch St. in Akron.  The auditions will be held on Wednesday,

> Actors of ALL ethnicities are encouraged to audition.  If you would  
> like to be considered for a role, but are unable to attend please  
> email at the above address to set up an individual meeting.  The  
> company is also seeking a stage manager who can play the djembe.
>
> Performances will be held January 19-21 in Cleveland Public
