So proud to announce the casting for my dark comedy Crimes Against Humanity debuting at the inaugural Atlanta Fringe Festival this May. So thankful to OnStage Atlanta and in particularly to Dr. David Klein for spearheading the project and now directing too. This is a shortened version of the play developed with InViolet Rep that received a reading through them directed by the great Padraic Lillis. Process Theater in Atlanta also did a reading of this play at their Play Day read-a-thon.
Auditions were this past Tuesday, and I am happy to say that all offers have been made and accepted. Without any further ado . . .
TIM TIM: Chris Watson
MAYA MAYA: Amanda Cucher
MICHEL MICHEL: Adam Bailey
ROGER, THE GUILTY ONE: Charlie Miller
ERNIE ERNIE: Stefond Johnson
Both Charlie and Adam were in the production of Picasso I directed for OSA in the fall. I’ve admired and wanted to work with Amanda for a couple of years now, and am thoroughly jazzed about working with Stefond and Chris who were absolutely spectacular at the auditions.
Lots of more updates to come including pictures, bios, reports from rehearsals and more. I feel very, very lucky to be a part of this.
Go Team!
