This is one of the most important plays of the last 25 years. A play that affected a nation and impacted our world.
Additional Information
Seven outstanding Adelaide actors have already been cast and we have three roles remaining. We are seeking three more actors of varying ages capable of playing up to 7 or more different characters of male appearance in this production. Red Phoenix Theatre is proudly diverse and encourages all actors who believe they can deliver these performances, regardless of their personal gender identification, to audition.
The play tells the story of a young gay man who is murdered in middle America because he is different.
The script is based on the principle of ‘verbatim theatre’. All the dialogue is created from transcripts from the 200+ interviews which were conducted by Tectonic Theatre Project in the city of Laramie beginning just 2 months after the ‘real life’ murder of Matthew Shepard.
If you believe that theatre has a role to play in helping make the world better place to live, then we invite you to join our auditions.
*Please note that this is unpaid work. Every member of Red Phoenix Theatre works for the passion of their craft understanding that this is an opportunity to grow and develop either their simple love of theatre or to continue developing and maintaining their skills between paid opportunities.
An extraordinary play which requires and extraordinary cast.
