What Are We Looking For?
Seeking female identifying actors between the ages of 7-13 years old to play the role of “Gloria” in Wait Until Dark. Performers must be no older than 13 years old through the entire run of the production. This is an unpaid, Non-Equity volunteer position.
Character Description: GLORIA (12-13) Gloria is at that very awkward age between childhood and adolescence. She is a bright child and has a good heart, but her home life is fairly rough (her mother is undependable, and her father abandoned the family not long ago) and she’s terribly uncomfortable in her body. Gloria wants desperately to be seen like a young woman – but she is very much still mired in childhood.
What to bring: One headshot and resume stapled back to back
What do prepare: One monologue no more than one minute in length.
