Murder on the 518 

Audition Options: I am looking for actors to make big, clear, fun character choices. I would like you to pick any 2 of the ones listed below and prepare them both! The idea is that you show me how different you can make them! Memorization is not required though highly recommended! Remember to work hard and be ready for the audition but also have fun! YOU MUST DO TWO.

Option 1: 

(This character is an author who spends the whole play talking in 3rd person while writing!)

Elliot entered the train station. The platform was brightly lit against the dimming light of the waning day. People were moving to and fro, hustling and bustling to reach their destinations. As Elliot approached the counter, the young ticket seller asked, “May I help you, sir?” Elliot replied, “Why, yes, thank you. May I please have one ticket to Los Angeles?” 

Option 2:

Hello, officers, let me introduce myself. My name is Owen Casey and I am a private investigator. I wanted to deliver this evidence straight to you along with this silver case. In this bag is the notepad from our resident writer Elliot Williams, which I think you will find very helpful with re-constructing the activities on the train during the journey. The bag also contains the camera that belongs to Sidney Bennett, the deceased paparazzo who was constantly taking pictures until he died. 

Option 3:

 So now you’ve spent the whole night chasing around a food theory that hasn’t gotten you anywhere! You can only try to make a layup so many times without a score before you have to switch plays and go for an outside three-point shot! So back up, reassess, and try another approach to the problem! 

Option 4: 

Do you know who I am? I am Isabella Madison, star of the movie One More Day, which is currently the top-grossing film in Iceland, Greenland, and Norway! I don’t step aside, and I certainly don’t wait in lines with people. People wait in lines for me! 

Option 5:

You know we can’t take our pharmaceutical samples on a plane. I always worry that the change in air pressure will ruin them and then the presentation will fall flat. This is a big acquisition for us, Jillian, and we can’t have anything go wrong.
