Equity actors for the role of Susan in WAIT UNTIL DARK (See breakdown).
[SUSAN] Mid 20s-Mid 30s. She/her. Any race or ethnicity. Blinded in a car accident a year ago, Susan is a strong willed and passionate young woman not willing to give in to despair over her loss of vision. She met and married Sam not long after her accident and is deeply devoted to him, though he can at times be rather rigid in his ways - something she may struggle with. Susan has a highly developed sense of personal intuition, and she has developed a keen reliance on her sense of sound. She is at times filled with anxiety and self-doubt, but overall possesses a heroic, strong and free-spirited nature. Above all she is resourceful and determined to outsmart her adversaries. Actors who are blind/low vision are encouraged to submit for this role.
