THE MAD ONES (FORMERLY THE UNAUTHORIZED AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF SAMANTHA BROWN) - Studio Theatre Worcester Non Equity Auditions

Studio Theatre Worcester is excited to announce Non-Equity/PAID local auditions for their production of The Mad Ones (formerly known as The Unauthorized Autobiography of Samantha Brown), by Kait Kerrigan and Bree Lowdermilk, directed by Lydia Cochran. All artists paid via a stipend (1099).

18-year-old Samantha Brown sits in a hand-me-down car with the keys clutched in her hand. Caught between a yearning for the unknown and feeling bound by expectation, she telescopes back to a time before her world had fallen apart. As she relives her senior year, we meet Sam’s well-intentioned helicopter mother Bev and her high school sweetheart of a boyfriend Adam, but it’s her painfully alive best friend Kelly that haunts her. Kelly was everything Sam is not – impetuous and daring. She pushed Sam to break rules and do the unexpected. When Kelly is killed in a car wreck, Sam loses not only her best friend but also the part of herself that was learning to be brave. Now, Sam has to make a decision: Will she follow her mother’s dreams for her, or will she summon the courage to drive away from her friends and family into a future she can’t imagine?

Auditions will be Saturday, March 18 from 3-6pm, Sunday, March 19 from 7-10pm, and Tuesday, March 21 from 7-10pm. Please prepare a monologue and 32 bars from a song. An accompanist will be provided. Performances will be June 15-25 in the black box theatre at the Worcester Academy Performance Center.
