What they are looking for
Parker Players Theater Company is casting Steven Dietz's Bloomsday: an Irish woman in her 20s, an Irish woman in her 50s or 60s and an American man in his 20s, plus an understudy for Robert. Fill out the online audition application by November 7; invited actors audition November 9 in Barrington with a contemporary monologue. Actors get a $750 stipend and understudies $400, and the show runs February 12 to March 7, 2027. Apply through the original listing.
Castina's tip
If you are invited, bring a monologue that feels natural, conversational and emotionally grounded, the tone the company asks for. For Cait or Caithleen, rehearse it in your best Irish accent, since that is how you will perform it. Tech and performances allow zero conflicts, so hold December 7 through March 7, 2027. The theater is about a mile and a half from the Barrington Metra station, handy if you commute from Chicago.
