Roles:
We are looking for strong physical actors. All types. Must be bold and fearless in your performance, with the ability to express deep emotion with no words. Urban Death Vegas is a devised, collective work with the opportunity for story contributions from the cast and a communal approach to creating a unique theatrical space.
Trigger Warning: If Urban Death Vegas were a movie, it would be rated NC-17 for extreme violence, gore, and sexual content. If you saw ABANDON, you will understand.
Special skills that may come in handy: puppetry, dance, contortion, acrobatics, gurning, magic, stage combat, mask work, Butoh, etc.
