Auditions will be held on Sunday afternoon, November 23rd at 2:00pm and on Tuesday evening, November 25th at 7:30pm at the Black River Playhouse located on the corner of Grove and Maple Streets in Chester, NJ.

The plot of this 2007 Pulitizer Prize winning play centers on the impact the accidental killing of a small child has on family dynamics and on the road toward domestic redemption.

The production is to be directed by Jay Mills. Mr. Mills is a veteran director who has helmed several other productions at CTG including; Three Tall Women, Proof and I Hate Hamlet. Prepared monologues are unnecessary as readings will be from the script. Character breakdowns are as follows:

Izzy (Early to Mid-30s) - Becca’s all-too-lively sister

Howie (Mid-30s to Early-40s) - Becca’s caring husband

Nat (Late-50s to Early-60s) - Becca and Izzy’s overbearing but compassionate mother

Jason (must play late teens) - Guilt-ridden High School student

If callbacks are necessary a date will be determined. Rehearsals will be weeknights and weekend afternoons based on availability. Production dates are Fridays and Saturdays March 6th, 7th, 13th, 14th, 20th and 21st at 8:00 p.m. with a scheduled matinee on Sunday, March 15th at 2:00 p.m.
