[NEohioPAL] June 16 Auditions in Ashtabula: Dog Sees God, by Bert V. Royal

[Douglas Anderson via NEohioPAL]

AUDITION: Bert V. Royal's "Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead"

Directed by Douglas Eric Anderson.



Auditions will be held from 7-9 p.m. on Friday, June 16, at the Ashtabula
Arts Center, 2928 West 13th Street, Ashtabula, Ohio. 4 men and 4 women
needed.



Performances will be August 11, 12, and 13, presented at the Ashtabula Arts
Center as a production of Rescued from the Mess, a local theater
collaboration. Dog Sees God is presented by special arrangement with
Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York.



Dog Sees God provides a gritty, witty take on beloved characters that many
will find familiar from their childhoods. The playwright adapts the gentle
conventions and conceits of a simple comic strip to the harsh hormonal
realities that many teens face every day. The result leaves the audience
with an indelible heartful of laughter and loss.



Those auditioning can bring a prepared monologue and/or read from the
script. The play includes strong language and adult situations
inappropriate for children. All characters are of high school age but
adults are strongly encouraged to audition.



If you need to schedule an alternate audition time, please contact the
director at rescuedfromthemess at gmail.com, or call 440-813-6088 before June
12th.



Rescued from the Mess is an independent theater collaboration in the
Ashtabula area. We hope to carve out a niche for bold and unabashed theater
in our area.



We are especially interested in brash, edgy works that feature unheard
voices and unseen faces. We hope to offer a haven for works and playwrights
that might not otherwise find safe harbor in our area.



And most of all, we hope to reach out to the audience members who do not
currently see themselves represented on stage, and show them art that
reflects their lives and concerns with honesty and compassion.
