<b>Subject:</b> <b>Re: Seeking VI Actor for Upcoming Theatrical
production</b><br><br>
\ufeff<br>
Hello Katelyn, great to hear from you! Here's some more
information:<br><br>
Harlequin Productions is seeking visually impaired actors to audition for
our 2026 season. The particular role we are looking to cast is Susan
Hendrix in Wait Until Dark by Frederick Knott, playing January 23 - Feb
8, 2026 at the State Theater in Olympia, WA. <br>
SUSY HENDRIX (Stage age 28) Susy is a vivacious young woman who was
blinded in a car accident a year ago. Possessed of a very strong will,
she decided not long after her accident that she would not let it ruin
her life. She met Sam a few months after the accident and was drawn to
his refusal to see her as handicapped and she married him. She is highly
intuitive and very sensitive. These traits sometimes give her an air of
vulnerability that is a counterpoint to her strong spirit. Susy is still
adjusting to her blindness and to her relatiively new marriage and is
happy to subjugate her natural free-spiritedness tto Sam\u2019s more rigid
way of living. <br>
The role is physically demanding and will require stage combat
experience.<br>
This is a non-Union contract. <br>
The pay is $250/week. <br>
We are unable to provide housing or travel, so this is for local hires.
<br>
Rehearsals begin Jan 5, 206. We rehearse evenings and weekends, 6 days a
week, 25 hours per week.<br>
Please submit a headshot and resume to
<a href="mailto:casting@harlequinproductions.org">
casting@harlequinproductions.org</a>. Auditions will be held in October.
<br>
Please note: submitting actors will also be eligible for other roles in
our 2026 season, depending on interest and availability. <br><br>
