BCT issues casting call for British play Constellations

Interested men and women wishing to perform live for an English-speaking stage production are invited to audition for Bangkok Community Theatre, at Bistro 33, Sukhumvit 33, on Saturday at 1pm.

The auditions are open to those aged between 25 and 45 of any nationality. Successful candidates will have an opportunity to join the Bangkok version of Constellations, an award-winning play by British writer Nick Payne, that will be staged in November.

Hailed as a metaphysical romance, the play follows physicist Marianne and beekeeper Roland who meet by chance at a barbecue. We watch their journey of life together -- what it is, what it has been and what it might be like -- as the play weaves in and out of the infinite possibilities of a single relationship.

We glimpse into the multiple universes that pull their lives in different directions. Boy meets girl, or doesn't. Girl meets boy, or not. They live happily ever after, or do they? Funny, moving and intimate, the story ultimately lifts us up by reminding us how precious any given moment can truly be. Registration starts at 12.30pm and time slots will be assigned in small groups to manage social distancing. Participants will be asked to act from a script and probably do some improvisation or movement work, both solo and with their group.

Non-performing roles may be available, including sound operation, set dresser, front of house staff and more. No experience is necessary. Enthusiastic, reliable people are also welcome.

To sign up or obtain more details, email constellations@bangkokcommunitytheatre.com.
