SEEKING

Equity actors for Chanukah in the Dark By Hayley Finn. (Understudies are not sought at this time.)

SYNOPSIS

Chanukah is the holiday Max loves most, and Max's grandparents always make it special. This year, an ice storm knocks out power in the neighborhood, and suddenly, what was a joyous holiday of latkes and family movies is launched into darkness. How will this family find a new way to celebrate Chanukah in the dark? A holiday story with songs.

CHARACTERS

MAX: An intelligent and imaginative 10-year old.

SASHA: A college student. Artistic and warm. Would do anything for Max.

GRANDMA (AKA Shirley): A very hip grandma. She has an earthy quality. When she was younger, she was a folk rock singer, but gave all that up to be a teacher and moved from New York to Minnesota.

GRANDPA (AKA Sam): A little nerdy but also hip in his own way. Not particularly spiritual but likes secular Judaism. Enjoys his own sense of humor and has a playful quality for an adult. The perfect match for grandma.

PREPARATION

Please prepare a one-minute monologue and a one-minute song of your choice. If you play a musical instrument, feel free to bring it. An accompanist will be provided.
