Description:
Possibilities Theatre Company is seeking actors to submit audition tapes for an upcoming Workshopped Production of IN THE DREAM I WAS A WEREWOLF by Jan Rosenberg.
As Mickey and Gory break up (for the 19th time), Mickey can no longer hide the secrets she's been keeping about what she really is and the person who raised her. It was Mickey's job to feed the monster. But how much longer can she keep it up?
A play about inherited trauma, addiction, harm reduction, and where we go when we go away.
Possibilities Theatre Company aims to amplify voices that have historically been silenced by giving people a stage on which to tell their stories authentically. We are a community of artists who take risks and act with love. We strongly welcome performers of varying sizes, abilities, gender-expressions and identities, and racial and ethnic-identities to submit.
