The Goat, or Who is Sylvia?

By Edward Albee

Directed by Kevin Clarke

Martin—a hugely successful architect who has just turned fifty—leads an ostensibly ideal life with his loving wife and gay teenage son. But when he confides to his best friend that he is also in love with a goat (named Sylvia), he sets in motion events that will destroy his family and leave his life in tatters.

Pay: $19.80/hr 

Auditions  OCT 28 &  29  evening  |   Callbacks  NOV 3 evening

Seeking:

Non-union Actors

Characters Available:

Stevie – Female Identifying -  Late 40s–Early 50s. Married to Martin. Unbothered, reasonable, comfortable, and has made all the “right” decisions in life. Her perfect life is about to face a shattering reality. Mime experience is a plus.

Martin – Male Identifying - 50s. Married to Stevie. An architect at the pinnacle of his career. Loves his family. Outwardly successful and admired, but carries a secret truth he cannot find the language to express.

Ross – Male Identifying - 50s. Martin’s oldest friend. TV personality, slick and performative. A charismatic playboy who lives on the verge of ick.

Billy – 17. Cis-male, openly gay. Sweet, fluid, and comfortable in his sexuality—it has never been a problem. Attends private school. The son of Martin and Stevie, he is loving and free. 

What to prepare: Sides will be provided. Actors auditioning for the role of Stevie: please prepare a 30-second pantomime of a common recognizable activity: making tea, washing dishes, throwing a ball, etc…
