AUDITIONS: Wait Until Dark
Sept 15 at 7:30

Purple Box Theater announces auditions for Wait Until Dark,
Jeffrey Hatcher's acclaimed adaptation of the classic suspense thriller by Frederick Knott.

Director: David Schultz
Assistant director: Jarrod Keeling

Performance dates: November 6-8 and 13-15

Audition dates: Tuesday September 15, 7:30 p.m.
Audition location: Purple Box Theater, 1309 West Parkwood Avenue, Friendswood, TX 77546

About the show
A masterful suspense thriller, Wait Until Dark follows Susan Hendrix, a recently blinded woman who becomes the target of dangerous con men searching for a mysterious doll believed to contain valuable contraband.
Trapped in her apartment and increasingly isolated, Susan must rely on her intelligence, courage, and determination to outwit her pursuers.
Filled with twists, deception, and edge-of-your-seat tension, this modern adaptation updates the setting while retaining all the suspense that made the original a classic.

Audition information
Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. No prepared monologue is required.

Please arrive 10 minutes early to complete an audition form and provide any known scheduling conflicts.
Please bring a resume and headshot if available.

This production contains themes of crime, deception, intimidation, violence, and suspenseful situations.
Stage combat and intense dramatic scenes will be safely choreographed and rehearsed.

Characters (all roles available)

Susan (female, 20s-40s):
Recently blinded, intelligent, independent, and resourceful. Susan undergoes a remarkable transformation from uncertainty to determination as she confronts increasingly dangerous circumstances. Requires strong emotional range and stage presence.

Roat (male, 30s-60s):
The primary antagonist. Intelligent, manipulative, and frighteningly unpredictable. Requires an actor capable of creating significant tension and menace.

Mike (male, 30s-50s):
Charming, confident, and seemingly helpful. A smooth operator whose true motives remain unclear. Strong acting skills for layered characterization are required.

Carlino (male, 30s-60s):
A tough, streetwise criminal. Direct, practical, and intimidating. Physically imposing presence is helpful but not required.

Sam (male, 30s-50s):
Susan's husband. Caring and supportive, though frequently absent due to work obligations.

Gloria (female, 10-14):
A neighborhood girl. Bright, energetic, independent, and sometimes confrontational.
Must be comfortable with substantial dialogue and stage interaction with adult actors.

Rehearsals
Rehearsals will begin Monday September 21 and will generally be held Monday through Thursday nights from 7:30 to 9:30. Not all cast members will be called to every rehearsal.

This is all volunteer.
