Auditions Coming Up: DEATH OF A SALESMAN by Arthur Miller
What if the dream you built your entire life around was nothing but a lie? Arthur Miller’s iconic tragedy Death of a Salesman asks what happens when financial success becomes a measure of human worth. The play explores emotionally difficult themes, including suicide, family conflict, and midlife crisis. Actors are thus invited to familiarize themselves with the play prior to the audition. We welcome people of all ages, genders, ethnicities, and abilities—no prior experience needed. You don’t need to prepare anything. Just show up!
We’ve got lots of backstage roles too! Whether you’re into stage and props, costume and makeup, production/directing assistance, photo and video, lighting and sound, PR and social media, or even graphic design—there’s a place for you. Reach out beforehand or join us at the read-through.
