The Auditioners
Doug Rand
Why we like it
"A poignant exploration of the emotional journey following an audition, capturing the vulnerabilities and aspirations of actors."
From: Great Audition Scenes for Two PeopleOn a bare stage of a summer theatre, this week's visiting star, Emily Haven, is about to audition Nancy, protege of an old friend who teaches drama at a nearby college.
The actress learns that the teacher and Nancy's mother have fought over the girl's career and that the audition is to determine her future.
Emily resents this, and in a tense scene exposes the selfishness of the two women who want to live their lives over again in the girl.
The Audition Is Over is a American play written by John Kirkpatrick and published by Samuel French (1989).
