BRIEF SYNOPSIS:
A Thought in Three Parts hilariously and shamelessly considers sex: before, during, and after. The play darts from a hotel room in a foreign country, to a raucous youth hostel, to the quiet home of a thoughtful lover. With loathing, loving, elegance and excess, young bodies collide, connect, convulse, and collapse in this graphic and thoughtful expression of crises of coupling. Does intimacy create meaning for people or smash it to bits?
Auditions will take place in early fall of 2013 in Lethbridge and Calgary. Theatre Outré will contact successful applicants for an audition.
Rehearsals will begin in late January, 2014 and the show will run in early February in Lethbridge, Alberta. Theatre Outré engages non-CAEA performers.
Those interested should submit an electronic application consisting of a headshot (.jpg no more than 2MB), as well as a performance resume (.doc, .docx, .pdf).
