I’m a Director of a local community theatre group in Campbelltown NSW and we are in desperate need for the lead “Tom Robinson” for our stage play “To Kill a Mockingbird” and we GO ON IN SIX WEEKS! The actor we had let us down on work commitments so now we have a cast of 25 without their Tom. ARE YOU AVAILABLE FOR THE NEXT 6 WEEKS? We need: Age: between 20 – 40yrs African American male or can play this role Medium to solid build Preferably tall, over 5’10” or 170cm + Rehearse Tues and Thurs night Production commences Fri 15th June for 3 weeks with Fri & Sat performances Can play with an American accent, area Alabama 6 pages of dialogue to memorise, but vital to the story (the story is about him, he IS the Mockingbird!) Script Character Description is as follows: Robinson is black handsome and vital but with his left hand crippled by a childhood accident and held against his chest. He is married to Helen and they have young children. He faces up to a false charge with quiet dignity. There’s an undercurrent in him of kindness, sensitivity and consideration. Please, if you are available IMMEDIATELY and can make it to rehearsals starting tomorrow night (Tuesday) please contact me, Byron Phillips, on 0414 995458. As this is an amateur production, these roles are unpaid thank you. Regards, Byron Phillips Director 0414 995 458
