TheatreWorks Holds Casting Call for David Lindsay-Abaire’s Rabbit Hole December 8 and 9, 7:00 – 9:00 pm

NEW MILFORD, CONN. (November 24, 2008) – TheatreWorks New Milford is seeking two men, ages 17-45, and three women, ages 30-65, for its opening production of the 2009 season ― the heartfelt drama, RABBIT HOLE, by David Lindsay-Abaire.

Winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, RABBIT HOLE charts the journey of Becca and Howie Corbett, a typical, suburban couple from Westchester County whose world is turned upside down in the wake of a life-shattering accident. Without sentimentality or mawkishness, Lindsay-Abaire weaves a simple and honest tale of loss filled with brilliant dialogue, all-too-familiar characters, unexpected laughter, and an overriding sense of hope for Becca and Howie’s uncertain future. RABBIT HOLE is under the direction of Susan Pettibone of New Milford.

The auditions will be held at TheatreWorks, 5 Brookside Ave., New Milford, Conn, on Monday, December 8 and Tuesday, December 9, 2008 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

All roles are available and both professionals and amateurs are welcome. The audition will consist of readings from the script. No appointments are necessary. TheatreWorks offers a stipend to all performers, technicians, and directors. For character breakdowns, audition sides, and directions to the Theatre, visit: WWW.THEATREWORKS.US.
