Actors (m), 21-35, for a solo play to run at the Edinburgh Fringe and on subsequent tour
Casting-overzicht
Casting for the 2027 production of THIEF, a multi award-winning solo play by Liam Rudden. The production includes an Edinburgh Fringe run and subsequent tour.
THIEF is a tragic tale of loss and longing, despair and defiance, inspired by the life and works of acclaimed French poet and playwright Jean Genet. It is an intimate piece of immersive theatre with no fourth wall, with a running time of 56 minutes. Themes include violence, expectations of masculinity, sexual abuse, mental health and victimhood.
Challenging and not for the easily offended, it is intimate piece of immersive theatre that allows the audience a more personal experience, the lack of a fourth wall removing any barrier between performer and audience.
Open auditions will be held in Edinburgh on Sunday 25 October. Those auditioning should prepare a contemporary speech of their own choosing, no longer than three minutes in length, and may be asked to read a section of the play.
This is a paid opportunity.
Rollen
Sailor is a sex worker, killer and thief who refuses to see himself as the real victim. Abused throughout his life, he is now in control of the circumstances that created the 'monster' he has become — or so he believes. He is a streetwise hustler, a sinister yet empathetic figure living on the streets and on his wits, charming and chilling by turn.
Sailor is a man struggling to maintain his last ounce of humanity and self-respect while surviving a brutal underworld existence. His ethos of subverting accepted moral behaviour and self-expression is drawn loosely from the works and life of Jean Genet.
The part requires nudity.
