Theater auditions in Toronto, ON Canada
Auditions for UNIT 102 ACTORS CO.’s production of THE LAST DAYS OF JUDAS ISCARIOT by STEPHEN ADLY GUIRGIS will be held March 11th 4pm – 8pm and March 12th 2pm – 8pm
The Last Days of Judas Iscariot tells the story of a court case over the ultimate fate of Judas Iscariot. The play uses flashbacks to an imagined childhood, and lawyers who call for the testimonies of such witnesses as Mother Teresa, Caiaphas, Saint Monica, Sigmund Freud, and Satan.
CHARACTER BREAKDOWN:
Please keep in mind we want the most DIVERSE cast possible. Every role is OPEN ETHNICITY.
Every character is streetwise, loose and playful. Thats what we’re looking for, no preconceived notions – just playful. Instead of specific character breakdowns we ask that you look at what kind of writing Stephen has done before you submit. Don’t just research this play, look at others.
This will be an equity co – op. Union and non-union actors welcome.
