The Wave (and what came after)

ACT Theatre • 700 Union SeattleWA  98101 Organized by ACT Contemporary Theatre

About this event

The Wave (and what came after) by Holly Arsenault When failing YouTuber, Penguin, and their sardonic sidekick, Bob, decide to turn their channel into an eco-anarchist-prank show, they just think it will be an easy way to get the attention of the masses (and earn the approval of Penguin's real estate mogul mother). But when they find themselves as the unlikely faces of a real eco-anarchist collective, they learn that what they do can actually – maybe?? - make a difference, that hope holds best in community, and that love (not likes) is the most powerful catalyst for action we've got. Rehearsals: July 7 – 25 Monday-Friday 12:30pm-4:30pm (Tech rehearsals July 22-25) Performances July 25 @7pm, July 26 @7pm, July 27 @2pm Rehearsals in ACT’s 8th Floor Rehearsal Room Tech and Performances in ACT’s Falls Theatre Casting Information: There are roles for 12 actors. Registration in the program guarantees you a role. For any questions, and/or for an advance copy of the script please contact Director Shana Bestock. A note from the playwright: Please fill your company with your most inventive, collaborative, brave, and nimble performers. The script demands a lot of them in terms of world-building, and they are the ones who will make sure that your production of this play is completely yours, and not anything that could be repeated by any other group at any other time. Give them as much freedom as you can to explore and create. Production Roles: to sign up to ASM/Run Crew, and/or to assist on Costume, Scenic, or Light Design, please confirm your role with Shana before registering. The Wave (and what came after) is a new script based on Underwater Weather, which was developed in collaboration with the YCC and premiered at ACT's 2024 New Works NW.
