KICK@&S PLAYS FOR WOMEN - KVPAC
Encore Players Auditions at KVPAC
Auditions for Kick@&S Plays for Women
By Jane Shepard

Directed by Lisa Connolly, Katie Martin, Morgan Midkiff & Heather Villano

Show Synopsis:
Edgy, original, and with a darkly funny humanity, award-winning new playwright Jane Shepard gives new muscle to actresses, providing roles of exceptional range. All successfully produced on the New York stage, each one of the four two-woman cast plays explores our tender, brave, and sometimes brutal search for meaning. Includes both comedy and drama, with a variety of settings and running times.
Nine : Two women held in a life-threatening situation and the mind games they play to keep one another alive. Held in a cell and chained apart, their only currency is words, and balance of power is everything when a single word becomes the hanging point between life and death.
Commencing : The beautiful Kelli can’t wait for the blind date her friends have set her up on. Until it turns out to be one very disappointed lesbian named Arlin. Mutually appalled, yet appallingly intrigued, they proceed to pull the screws loose on both straight and gay women’s culture, to find the common ground beneath in the search for love & self.
Friend of the Deceased : An embittered widow lies in wait at her husband’s grave for the appearance his mistress, and encounters a soulful teen. Unable to extract a confession from the girl, the widow offers to buy one, and finds that she has purchased a deeper truth.
The Last Nickel : Theatrical, funny & touching, it’s another long night for Jamie, with an obnoxious sister & a trio of sardonic puppets to keep her awake. Tinged with fun & sisterly nostalgia, the merriment comes inevitably to focus on the cause of Jamie’s self destruction, and the loss that has brought her to the edge.
All (8) parts are open:
Seeking 2 Female actors, for each of the four plays, of varying physical types and ages

Two puppeteers are needed for The Last Nickel (can be men or women)
