Please prepare a 90-second monologue and 16 bars of a gospel
or a R&B-inspired song (with clearly marked sheet music) in the style of
the show. Material should show range and an understanding of dramatic
satire.
The Colored Museum is a powerful and satirical exploration
(in the spirit of “In Living Color!”) of African American identity through a
series of 11 “exhibits” (scenes and songs). This thought-provoking play
challenges stereotypes and celebrates Black culture with humor and
heart.
Casting Requirements: Actors who identify as African American, Black or of
the African Diaspora with improvisational skills, who are familiar with the
genre of satire and the ability to embody different characters are strongly
encouraged to apply.
Available Roles:
TRACK 1 – Male (As cast)
TRACK 2 – Male (As cast)
TRACK 3 – Female (As cast)
TRACK 4 – Female (As cast)
