Non Equity Auditions

Continuing The Tin Ceiling's critically acclaimed 2006 season comes
auditions for its next show, the 2004 Oppenheimer Award winning play
for Best New York Debut "The Flu Season" by Pulitzer-prize nominated
author Will Eno.

The Guardian describes the play thusly: "a love
story goes bad (really bad), a play gets written in painful fits and
starts, snow falls, it turns to slush. Maybe spring arrives. This is a
play to remind us why sunsets make us sad, how nostalgia is like fog
and why we live our lives as though we are in mourning for them. THE
FLU SEASON is stingingly funny and really rather beautiful. Eno
specializes in the connections of the unconnected, the apologetic
murmurings of the disengaged, those who have suppressed their humanity
to survive. It is vicious stuff, written in a language so deceptively
innocent, so full of platitudes, that you don't realize it has cut you
deep until you feel the warm seep of bloody despair."

Directed by Andrew Byrd.
