Auditions
“Mask and Mirror Community Theatre's focus and intent is casting the best actors available for each role, and encourages racial, cultural, gender, and artistic diversity. Roles are open to non traditional casting where appropriate”
Auditions are coming up soon for our winter play to be performed at the Tualatin Heritage Center in January and February!
Auditions for A. R. Gurney’s heart-warming, poignant story, “Love Letters,” directed by Linda Talluto, will be held at the Tualatin Heritage Center (8700 SW Sweek Drive, Tualatin OR) on Sunday, October 31st from 2-4 pm and Monday, November 1st from 6-9 pm. Callbacks (if needed) will be held on Saturday, November 6th from 2:45-4:45 pm.
All those auditioning must show proof of vaccination and wear a mask at all times. Rehearsals will be held at the Heritage Center and the director’s home (due to limited availability at the Heritage Center). Actors of all backgrounds and ethnicities are encouraged to audition.
Sides will be available at the audition. For those who would like an electronic copy in advance, please send an email to webmaster@maskandmirror.com .
Cast: 1 woman and one man, each about 56 years old.
The play’s two characters are a man and a woman who exchange letters, but not marriage vows, in a complicated friendship lasting 50 years. It follows two people, Andy Ladd III and Melissa Gardner, whose lifetime correspondence begins in second grade, with birthday party thank you notes and summer camp postcards.It continues through boarding school and college, where Andy excels at Yale and law school, and Melissa flunks out of several schools. Andy goes on to be a successful attorney, husband, and politician, while Melissa, her marriage in tatters, dabbles in art and drinks too much. Poignant, romantic, and frequently funny, their correspondence follows a bittersweet path of marriage, children, divorce, and missed opportunities. It’s the life journey of two soul mates - enacted through words both written and unsaid - who share the greatest gift of all: the gift of love. As the actors read the letters aloud, what is created is an evocative and touching, but always telling pair of character studies, in which what is implied is as revealing and meaningful as what is actually written down.
