AUDITION INFO: NOV. 16/17
4000 Miles written by Amy Herzog and directed by Libby Stratton will audition actors on Monday, Nov 16 in Nichols Hall from 7-10:30pm
After suffering a major loss while he was on a cross-country bike trip, 21 year-old Leo seeks solace from his feisty 91 year-old grandmother Vera in her West Village apartment. Over the course of a single month, these unlikely roommates infuriate, bewilder, and ultimately reach each other. 4000 MILES looks at how two outsiders find their way in today’s world.
This production is Sandy Chastan’s graduate project, so she will be playing Vera.
