Logline:
An Afro-Latino playwright, blocked by the challenge of writing what he believes will be his final play, summons characters from some of his previous plays for inspiration, only to confront chaos, comedy, and a deeper understanding of his identity and the true meaning of success.
Actors will be required to prepare a short monologue from a contemporary play (either realistic or dramatic/non-realistic).
Actors are required to bring their resumes and headshots, please staple them together.
