Clybourne Park Auditions

The Strollers, the Community Theater in Residence at the Burgdorff Center for The Performing Arts, in Maplewood announce auditions for the Pulitzer Prize winning play, Clybourne Park, by Bruce Norris, directed by Cynthia S. Ross. Taking characters from Lorraine Hansberry\'s A Raisin in the Sun, this razor-sharp new dramady takes a jab at race and real estate in a fictional Chicago neighborhood. The play begins in 1959 as a black family moves into a white enclave. Act Two takes us back to the same house in 2009 as gentrification sets in and the roles are reversed. One agile ensemble of actors play two sets of characters in the play The Washington Post deemed \"one of its feistiest, funniest evenings in years.\" The production dates are November 7, 8, 14 & 15 at 8 PM and November 9 at 2 PM. Audition dates are September 8th and 9th at 7:30 PM and callbacks are September 11th at 7:30 PM at the Burgdorff Center for The Performing Arts, 10 Durand Road Maplewood. (Maplewood train station one block away.) Rehearsals will be Sunday’s Monday’s Wednesday’s and Thursday’s. All those wanting to be cast need to attend 99% of rehearsals and EVERY performance. No exceptions will be made. Auditions will be from sides provided at the auditions. For further information got to www.thestrollers.org or email us at themaplewoodstrollers@gmail.com.
