AUDITIONS

Greater Boston Stage Company Open Call Announcement
 
Seeking Equity or non-Equity actors for the roles of Linda and Becky in Incident at Our Lady of Perpetual Help, a new play by Katie Forgette at Greater Boston Stage Company.

• Linda O’Shea (19-years old) Linda is highly intelligent, caring, and curious. She alternates between thinking she knows everything and thinking she knows nothing. Responsible and rarely impetuous.

 

• Becky O’Shea (13-years old) Becky is an unusual child. Bright and verbal. Full of energy and a crazy-huge imagination. She speaks quickly, not unlike some of the characters in the movies she loves, like "His Girl Friday."

 
No understudies are being cast. For these auditions, no nudity or any form of sexual contact will be required as part of an actor’s audition.
