Casting Call: 'A Behanding in Spokane'

Circle Players will hold auditions for “A Behanding in Spokane,” a 2010 dark comedy written by award-winning playwright Martin McDonagh, at 7:30 p.m. March 3 and 4. Auditions will consist of cold readings from the performance script. Callbacks, if needed, will be held on March 5.

Performances will be at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays April 19-May 4, with a 3 p.m. matinee on May 5.

Carmichael has been searching for his missing left hand for over a quarter of a century. Enter two bickering lovebirds with a hand to sell, and a hotel clerk with an aversion to gunfire, and what follows is a hilarious rollercoaster of love, hate, desperation and hope.

Toby (male, late 20s, African-American)	A likeable small-time pot dealer. Ideal actor will be of slim build, physically fit, and must be comfortable uttering foul language.
Marilyn (female, 22)	Also a small-time pot dealer, and a con artist.
Carmichael (male, mid- to late 40s, Caucasian)	A tough guy. Actor must be able to do a forward roll into a standing position.
Mervyn (male, late 20s to early 30s)	A paunchy, not very bright hotel clerk.

 A stage manager is also needed.
