Story Synposis:
New York City, Winter, 1992. Homeless people are being burned in Van Cortland Park, the moon has disappeared from the sky, and natural food has turned to salt. Marisol Perez was just told that her guardian angel has been called to serve the war in Heaven, and can no longer protect her from the universe that’s being broken apart by a senile God. Through a nightmare journey in the wasted city at the end of the world, she finds herself on the streets, homeless, where her many encounters include a woman beaten for exceeding her credit limit and a homeless burn victim in a wheelchair looking for his lost skin. Marisol must now face an angry, dying Earth on her own, and fight to protect her friend June, while avoiding June’s violently aggressive brother, Lenny.
Sides for cold readings will be available at the audition. No need to prepare a monologue.
