ABOUT THE PLAY:

Two geniuses. Two worlds. One maddening riddle. In 1913, a young, self-taught mathematical genius in India named Srinivasa Ramanujan is invited to England to work with G. H. Hardy, a Cambridge professor. But just as mathematics draws these two men from vastly different cultures together, it also possesses the power to destroy them. A riveting fantasy based on real events.

“This is one terrific theater evening…a play which grabs you from the beginning and takes you through an often funny, but moving and deeply human experience.” Berkeley Daily Planet

Casting Call: South Asian Male for Austin’s Frontera Fest Long Fringe Festival

I received a casting call from Pratima Agrawal:

Looking for a South Asian male actor for a new play entitled Gods and Idols, by Austin playwright Jason Rainey.   The play will be performed as part of Austin’s Frontera Fest Long Fringe Festival in January/February 2013.

Gods and Idols centers on the growing obsessions of a young couple, Harris and Joan.  While driving on the interstate a few years earlier, Harris nearly strikes a Sikh man on a bicycle.  Now Harris finds the man haunting his dreams, circling his apartment on the same bicycle.  Who is this man, and what does he want to tell Harris?  Meanwhile, Joan spends more and more time following a local musician, but who has more to gain from Joan’s loyalty?  Harris and Joan strive to comprehend their fixations without losing their identities.

ROLE:  Man on Bike – Indian male; 20s-30s

While auditions for other roles will not take place until September 2012, we are looking to fill this role early.  Rehearsals will begin in October 2012.  All rehearsals/performances will take place in Austin.  While we cannot offer travel/lodging compensation, there will be possible deferred pay following the festival.

If interested, please submit headshot/resume to oneworldtheatre@gmail.com.

Shunya 2012 Season and Auditions!

Shunya will be presenting two fantastic plays this season:

In May 2012
Art, by Yasmina Reza
This comedy is an exploration of the relationships of three adult male friends grappling with identity, and asks, “Are you who you think you are or are you who your friends think you are?” Entertaining and thought provoking, this play will leave audiences talking.

In August 2012
The Adventures of Hanuman, by Aditi Kapil
This will be Shunya’s first every production of a youth musical, complete with live music and original songs. This is certain to be a fantastic family event.

Work is already well under way for these productions. We are happy to announce auditions for our May production of ART. We are looking for three male actors between 30 and 45.

Auditions will be held at:
Barnevelder Movement Arts
2201 Preston Street
Houston, TX, 77003
