Call to Audition!

This May, FEST will present the multiple award-winning poignant comedy by Will Eno: The Realistic Joneses, to be directed by Jim Phetterplace Jr.

Two suburban couples, both named Jones, struggle to connect, to protect and to answer existential questions in the face of a life-threatening diagnosis. The play gives us an “inside look at the people who live next door, the truths we think we know and the secrets we never imagined we all might share.”

The cast consists of two actors who can play mid- to late 40s and two who can play 30s to mid-40s.

Auditions will take place on Tuesday, 11 February 18:30-21:30, and Saturday, 15 February 10:00-13:00. Callbacks will take place on Saturday, 13:00-14:00.

Performances for The Realistic Joneses will take place on May 16,17,18, 23,24,25 at the Kulturhaus.
