Mister Halston
by Raffaele Pacitti
Director: Michael Wilson
Contract Dates: May 18 - June 21, 2026
This role is cast. Seeking future replacements: The iconic American fashion designer is depicted near the end of his life at the age of 57 but should read younger during flashbacks and reveries. In movement and speech, he embodies the grace, elegance and simplicity that made him the most modern, intriguing man in the room. Halston must exude a deliberate air of calm and control, a supreme level of taste and refinement. Any tension or restlessness is hidden beneath a striking, effortless poise. He communicates with clarity, precision and authority, forever demanding the dominance he believes is his due. He easily diffuses conflict with charm and levity. Throughout the play, the sheen of his persona is repeatedly shattered. His reactions are dramatic, startling, and deeply emotional. Has an agility with both language and movement and the ability to navigate complex emotional dynamics. Able to maintain the intense concentration needed to sustain audience attention, while playfully exploring theatrical shifts in tone.

Evan prefers to be in the background, too afraid to step forward into the spotlight and risk ridicule or, even worse, no one noticing him.

When one of these letters falls into the wrong hands Evan finds himself thrust into the center of a serious situation that becomes national news.
(Female Identifying, 18-23, Any Ethnicity, Pop Soprano F3-E5) 18+ to play late teens. Connor's younger sister and Evan's longtime crush.

(Female Identifying, 40s, Any Ethnicity, Pop Soprano with belt, F#3-E5) Connor and Zoe’s mother. To Evan, she seems to be the perfect mother; nurturing, available, and willing to talk about anything.

(Male Identifying, 40s, Any Ethnicity, Pop Bari-tenor F3-G4) Connor and Zoe’s father who is often busy and distant. Larry shows a different face to the rest of the world, representing for Evan the dad he always wished for: strong, confident, and, more than anything, reliable.
