A NOTE ON THE LAB’S STANCE ON COLOR-CONSCIOUS CASTING
What is color-conscious casting, and why is it important? Color-conscious casting intentionally chooses an ethnically diverse cast for shows originally written without diversity in mind. It’s important because representation matters. Theater is better when all stories are told, not just those of a single segment of society. Intentional color-conscious casting goes hand-in-hand with seeking shows that have a universal appeal to audiences of all ethnicities, genders, and sexual orientations.
While some playwrights dictate specific ethnicities in their work, The Laboratory Theater of Florida is committed to offering opportunities on our stage for ethnically diverse actors. We encourage everyone to audition for our straight plays on either Saturday, June 7th, from 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm, and Tuesday, June 10th, from 5 pm – 8 pm Registration is encouraged. The theater will accept walk-ins in order of arrival as time allows. If you don’t have a monologue, the theater will provide one.
Come play with us!
