Twin Masks Performing Arts Center is excited to announce auditions for The Meeting, by Jeff Stetson.  Set in 1965, the play is an imagined meeting between Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. after the bombing of Malcolm X's home.

"Fascinating and dramatically compelling, this eloquent play depicts the supposed meeting of two of the most important men of modern times: Malcolm X and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  Differing in their philosophies, but alike in their mutual respect, the two men debate their varying approaches to the same grave social problems, both prepared to die for their beliefs, but neither aware of how soon their assassin's bullets would await them."

 

Audition Dates:  December 20 & 21, starting at 7:00 PM.

Actors will be reading from the script for these auditions.
