Please prepare a 2-3 min monologue and bring 2 paper copies of it with you to the audition. Please come prepared to play the monologue as two different characters. Use a monologue that was written for one character, but prepare two different character versions of it, and we will play around with switching at the audition.

Rupert Holmes’ Accomplice is a clever, fast-paced murder mystery filled with twists, deception, and characters who may not be exactly who they seem. It keeps the audience guessing as the story unfolds, with plenty of surprises and dark humor along the way. Directed by Megan Finlay, this production will be fast-paced and physical, and will focus on telling the story in a clear and visceral manner. All four roles are great opportunities to shine through the split-second switching between characters, and we are seeking physical and technical performers.
Character Descriptions:
2 Males, 35-45, any race.
2 Females, 25-45, any race.
All performers play multiple characters.
Masquers Playhouse does not discriminate on the basis of an individual’s race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or disability. We are seeking a diverse list of artists for every role and encouraging all to submit.
