DESCRIPTION

Casting Call: Actor to Play Drag Queen in Queer Horror Comedy


We are seeking a non-Equity actor to play Penny, a ghostly drag queen, in a heartfelt and darkly comic short play featured as part of a festival being held at The Tank.


About the Role:

Penny is a quick-witted, charming drag queen who has been lingering in purgatory since losing her partner during the AIDS crisis. In the play, she encounters a young lesbian couple vacationing in Provincetown, forming an unexpected bond that helps them—and herself—find healing and closure.

No prior drag experience necessary! Makeup and hair will be done for you.


Performance Details:

Date: Sunday, December 15th, 7:00 PM

Tech Rehearsal: Same day, 12:00–12:30 PM

Rehearsals: 2–4 short rehearsals scheduled between December 1 and December 15, based on availability

Additional Info:


This is an unpaid role for a non-AEA performer.

If interested, please send a headshot, resume, and any video clips or reels showcasing your work to [email protected].

Please direct all questions to [email protected]. Neither The Tank nor the festival will be able to assist with inquiries regarding this casting call.

A copy of the script is available upon request.
