What they are looking for
Spectacle Petite is looking for a performer to originate the Mythkeeper, the central character of «Mythkeeper's Parlor», a one-on-one immersive experience in Hell's Kitchen, New York. In a cozy kitchen parlor, the Mythkeeper welcomes each guest, gets a conversation going, guides them through a playful ritual and then recites a short scripted story; each visit runs about 30 minutes. They want sharp improv skills, an easy conversational style and a distinctive storytelling voice, and immersive theatre experience helps but is optional. Rehearsals are in late November or early December, with scattered performances from December 2026 through March 2027. It is paid: $30 per hour, non-union. The listing does not give a closing date. Apply through the original listing.
Castina's tip
Think about how you would open a conversation with a stranger who walks into your kitchen, since that is what the character does before telling the story. If you have a clip of yourself improvising or telling a short story to camera, send it; it shows what they want better than a scene reel. Performances are scheduled around the group's availability, so share your open days from December through March. Ask how many hours per week they expect so you know what you will earn.
