Possum Point Players invites you to audition for their upcoming Production of Angels in America.
Tony Kushner’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play intertwines the lives of characters grappling with love, loss, and identity amid the 1980s AIDS crisis. Complexities of human relationships, identity, and faith are confronted against a backdrop of political and social upheaval. Emerging from a mix of raw emotion and the supernatural is a rich portrayal of the pursuit of meaning in a turbulent time.
Please prepare a monologue of your choosing and/or one of the monologues provided from the script. Please familiarize yourself with the plot of the show and subject matter.
The Production
In the rehearsal room and text participants will be dealing with topics such as spirituality, morality, grief, shame, community, politics, religion, sex, illness, regret, addiction, Ronald Reagan, racism, liberalism, conservatism, community, patriotism, death, gender issues, homosexuality, and HIV/AIDS.
The rehearsal process will include a vast amount of table work, dramaturgy, explorative and sometimes challenging conversations, and collaboration. My idea is to present a theatrical experience many people in our community have never had. Bare bones, actors and stage crew on stage for most of the show. is a different type of play, and will be presented as such.
