A Walk in the Woods
June 1st & 2nd, 6:00pm
OTA Readers Theatre is seeking two actors for Lee Blessing’s sharp comedic drama, A Walk in the Woods.
A Walk in the Woods by Lee Blessing is a 1988 Pulitzer Prize finalist and Tony-nominated play based on a true 1982 incident involving Cold War arms negotiators.
It is a two-character, witty, and thoughtful political drama focusing on the evolving friendship between a cynical, experienced Soviet diplomat (Andrey Botvinnik) and an idealistic, newer American negotiator (John Honeyman).
Preformance Runs June 26th - 28th
Seeking:
ANDREY BOTVINNIK (can play 50s+): A Russian diplomat who is charming, cynical, and perhaps more interested in Willie Nelson than nuclear war. Must have a strong command of comedy and nuance. (Russian accent a big plus).
JOHN HONEYMAN (can play 30s-40s): An American negotiator. Idealistic, slightly high-strung, and trying desperately to move the needle.
Auditioners will be asked to read from excerpts of the script, provided on the night of auditions.
