Many Hats Productions is accepting digital submissions for auditions for Collective Rage: A Play in Five Betties by Jen Silverman, directed by Siobhan Ehresmann.
Many Hats Productions is a new production company focusing on sharing q***r stories. As young professionals, we have witnessed some of the greatest tellings of q***r stories onstage in Philadelphia, and are presenting our first production with the aspiration to become a part of telling such stories.
All actors will be compensated with a small stipend following the close!
Thank you for your interest!!
SUMMARY:
Betty is rich; Betty is lonely; Betty’s busy working on her truck; Betty wants to talk about love, but Betty needs to hit something.
