by Kari Barclay 15 Dec '23

15 Dec '23

Seeking actors for a new play, *How to Live in a House on Fire, *at Test Flight, a new work development program at Cleveland Public Theater. The play is a spell to guide us through climate grief. It asks how we survive times of trouble and reaches to queer history to see how we've survived before. Show information: As a queer couple sorts through their belongings to prepare for a wildfire evacuation in California, they look back to their history and consider what to take with them and what to leave behind. They remember the night they first met at a queer commune in Berkeley, CA in 1970, when another fire shook the community. Full script available on request. Characters: ANAND – an activist looking for purpose, 20s or 30s, always trying to organize his peers, South Asian DREW – grad student looking to care for others, 20s or 30s, written as a wheelchair or cane user, but can be rewritten for another actor with a disability BENNY, a bit of a mess, wracked by nostalgia, 60s or 70s, partners with Jeremy JEREMY, organized, always on his phone, 60s or 70s, a daydreamer, partners with Benny Commitment and dates: Rehearsals will occur from Feb. 12-Mar. 21, with shows March 21-23. Rehearsals will be on weekday evenings with the occasional weekend afternoon. The show will be a fully staged, off-book workshop but will not have as demanding a rehearsal schedule as a full production (likely 2/3 times per week). Compensation: At least $150 per actor To get involved: Email kari.barclay(a)gmail.com with your interest, resume or theater experience (if applicable), and a photo. If it seems like a good fit, we'll organize a more formal audition via Zoom or in real life. Thank you! Best, Kari -- *Kari Barclay* They/them or he/him Director - Writer - Educator Assistant Professor of Theater, Oberlin College *"Maintenance: preserve the new; sustain the change; protect progress; renew the excitement; repeat the flight; show your work--show it again; keep the contemporary art museum groovy."--Mierle Laderman Ukeles*
