The New World Theatre Club (NWTC) has issued a Call for auditions for the one-act play "The Ripple Effect" by Robert Scott.
Auditions for The Ripple Effect will take place on Sunday 3 February from 10:00 - 13:00 at the Waldorf School (35 rue de l’Avenir, L-1541 Luxembourg) - those interested in attending should be there by 09:45 for a prompt start at 10:00.
The play will be performed here in Luxembourg on either Thursday 9 to Saturday 11 May or Thursday 17 to Saturday 19 May; the venue is yet to be confirmed. It will also be performed at the FEATS 2019 theatre festival which will take place from Thursday 20 May to Sunday 2 June 2019 in Munich, Germany.
Those interested in auditioning should contact Chris Wilson (email: chris@wilson.lu) and Valerie Scott (email: Valerie.scott.lu@gmail.com). Those who cannot come on 3 February may be accommodated on an alternative date and time.
About the play: Five years after her husband’s death, Eva, who has been supported through her grief by her sister, comes face-to-face with the man responsible. The events which led up to that loss, and the consequent effects on all their lives, are explored in this one-act play. Working backwards through time in short scenes, the play illustrates how the course of our lives can change in a moment, and on a whim. The Ripple Effect is an interesting exploration of lives blighted by loss, and of fate and revenge.
