[NEohioPAL] Actors, men and women, for speaking roles in new opera

[Real Time Opera]

Real Time Opera announces

* **AUDITIONS*

for actors in a new piece:  *NOVA*

Music by Lewis Nielson
Libretto by Paul Schick
Directed by Jonathon Field

Three performances February 6th, 7th, 8th as part of *Cleveland Public
Theater*'s Big Box 2014 Workshop Series. Rehearsals start mid-January. All
roles are compensated.

*The Play*
Grounded in the venerable traditions of satire and political theater --
from Aristophanes through Swift to Brecht -- NOVA affords a searing glimpse
of the commodification of humans in a culture of the relentless sales
pitch. Will husband (Al) succumb to the prurient pressures of an in-home
demonstration of a new robot bride and trade in his living wife (Marlene)?
Will anyone notice the grandfather (Andy Gramps) who expires in front of
his TV during the demo?

*The Roles*
1. Al, the husband, in his late thirties or early forties. Dance/movement
experience a huge advantage.
2. Andy Gramps (mute), in his sixties.
3. Marlene, the wife, (mute) in late thirties or early forties*
Please note:* these are spoken and/or mute acting roles, *not sung.*

*The Auditions* from 2pm-5pm on Saturday 12th October at the Cleveland
Institute of Music, room 111. Warm-up spaces are available. Walk-ups
welcome.
