We cast the Black actress role!
African American actresses, union or non-union, mid 20s to early 30s, to play third lead Carol Wilson in Gary Morgenstein play A Black and White Cookie, which will run for 12 performances as an Equity Showcase in the Vino Theater in Williamsburg, 274 Morgan Ave Suite 201, Brooklyn, NY 11211
November 11-14, November 18-21 and December 2-5.
Here's a description:
In the provocative and timely A BLACK AND WHITE COOKIE, Harold Wilson, a gruff, conservative African American in his late 60s, finally re-opens his New York City newsstand following the pandemic lockdown. But an exorbitant rent increase forces him to close after 30 years and reluctantly retire to Florida with his niece Carol. Enter Albie Sands, an eccentric 1960s Jewish radical, who persuades Harold to fight the landlord. Overcoming their differences, Harold and Albie form an unlikely yet powerful friendship to confront corporate greed and prejudice.
The play premieres October 1-3 at Silver Spring Stage outside DC, kicking off their 54th season.
Writer Gary Morgenstein will send script to the interested and qualified party.
