Latitude Theatre
About the project and the company
THE JUNK DRAWER — 3/19 – 4/18
Latitude Theatre is seeking five (5) actors to participate in the workshopping of a newly translated script. Participants in the workshop will be introduced to and trained in Christopher Kidder-Mostrom’s Reclaiming the Essence workshopping method for translated works. The method combines physical acting with text analysis and some improvisational skills. Workshop participants will receive a $250 stipend for participation, and right of first refusal to play their part when the final script is presented in a public staged reading in August 2024 (reading contract/stipend is separate from workshop contract/stipend).

Location of Audition
There are no physical auditions. Just submissions via email. Please include headshot, resume, and any random information that you'd like us to know. We will contact people to set up Zoom interviews.
Other details
This is an English Language workshop. All workshopping activities will be done in English, and the final work will be in English. Ability to speak Spanish is not required for this workshop.

BIPOC and other actors who identify as part of groups which have been historically underrepresented on stage are especially invited.
