Show | 5 Lesbians Eating Quiche |
Company | Modern Classics Theatre of Long Island |
Notes | The play calls for 5 female-presenting performers of any adult age, race, or ethnicity. These actors need to be quick witted so improv experience is preferable, though not required, as audience interaction is part of the show. Also, actors must be comfortable kissing fellow actors on stage (an intimacy coach will be present during specific rehearsals) and mild stage combat (a fighting coach will be present during specific rehearsals). |
Instructions | Sides will be provided at auditions. Feel free to email Julie Lorson for a copy of the script in advance. |
Rehearsal Dates | Read Through: Mid September Rehearsals: Throughout October based on cast availability Tech Week: Nov 2 through Nov 7 |
