On the Island of Caliban
Location: Los Angeles
Type: Theater
AUDITIONS – On the Island of Caliban by Nicelle Davis. Looking for Strong Dancers, Singers, Musicians, and Actors.
Directed by A. M. Anthony M Sannazzaro
A brand new play continuing William Shakespeares The Tempest. Centralized around the character of Caliban, this modern language deconstruction of the bards classic text, Nicelle presents an “everyman” Caliban for today’s society, who tackles universal experience through exploring the realities of what left him alone on the island.
Split into five separate personas, played by any gender, age, or race, Caliban, kept company by malevolent stage directions, Ariels chastising tongue, and his personal revelations, discovers the truth and himself.
Rounding out the cast of players is a withered forgetful Prospero, a silenced domesticated suburban Ariel, and a tortured Miranda who long for something other than they bargained for.
Through emails, mixed media, imaginative design, and a tour de force poetic cadence of matching caliber to its original source, On the Island of Caliban violently thrashes after The Tempest as that was only the calm before the storm.
Auditions Will Be Held
Wed July 15th 2015 & Thurs July 16th & Wed July 22nd 2015 – By Appointment Only.
