The company is holding auditions for “Sweet Delilah Swim Club” by Jones, and looking for performers, please see the details below.
ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE CONSIDERED.
About the project:
Five Southern women, whose friendships began many years ago on their college swim team, set aside a long weekend every August to recharge those relationships. Free from husbands, kids and jobs, they meet at the same beach cottage, the “Sweet Delilah” on North Carolina’s Outer Banks to catch up, laugh and meddle in each others’ lives.
Additional info:
This is a non-equity, non-pay production.
Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. No monologues are necessary. All those auditioning are encouraged to provide a resume of their onstage experience and must provide a list of all potential conflicts including travel.
