Endometriosis: The Musical at Edinburgh Fringe - Ripped Nylons Productions

Seeking AEA or non-union performers for ENDOMETRIOSIS: THE MUSICAL at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. All rehearsals will take place in Washington, D.C.

Endometriosis: The Musical is an absurdist comedy set in the all-too-real world of the American healthcare system. It follows Jane, a driven young professional with a mystery illness that’s ruining her big business dreams. Even though this show is filled with outlandish characters that often have ridiculous dialogue, it is critical that the show is not played like a farce. The characters are real people with real emotions. We encourage the cast to find the honesty behind the lines and trust that the laughs will come. The distinction between farce and absurdism here really matters: in farce, the characters know they are in a comedy. In absurdist theatre, they don’t. They are simply living their lives, the absurdity is the world around them.
