Autobahn - a play that I'm directing
Auditions will be Wednesday February 16th and Thursday February 17th at the Saint John Theatre Company (112 Princesss Street).
No preparation required, although I do have the script available if you were interestedd in reading it fist - just let me know.
Autobahn, written by Neil Labute, is a collection of seven one-act plays set within the confines of the front seat of a vehicle. Each of these seven vignettes explores the ethos of perception and relationships.
