The Brown Paper Box Co. Hosts Auditions For To Tree 11/16

By: Nov. 16, 2011

The Brown Paper Box Co. is auditioning men for their world premiere production of Aaron Golden's To Tree.

ABOUT THE SHOW
Set in a rural Indiana field over the course of several months, To Tree is a funny, deeply thought-provoking piece about friendship, identity, metamorphosis, and the human experience, presented through the genre of magical realism. But in the end, it all boils down to one simple question: what do you do when your buddy decides to become a tree?

ROLES
Julian Fisher: 25. Black. Has given up. Strong physical role with very little movement. Focused.

Peter Claypool: 24. White. Good-looking. Is still going. Journalist with no verbal filter.

Please prepare two contemporary monologues no longer than 2 minutes a piece. You may only be asked to perform one for time.
