| Lauren is like most wannabe actresses
- she wants to be famous, and to be famous
you have to suffer the audition process.
So when she attends an audition for a 'must-have',
career-building part, little does she know
that the Director, Stella, has very strong
views about how an audition should be conducted;
about how the person auditioning should
be tested and what should and should not
be said. Stella is about to push Lauren
to her mental, physical, emotional and ethical
limits. Each of her auditions lasts for
a complete day, and they are very much one
to one.
Close to her breaking point, Lauren is
subjected to alcohol, drugs and mind games
as part of the audition process, all so
that Stella can find out the answer to one
question. How far will an actress go go
to get the part?
This powerful new drama is hard-hitting
and spiky, both suggestive and revealing;
an insight into the mindsets of the examiner
and the examined.
This title is available as a full-length
play or as a 60 minute one-act play. |
