Audition submissions due Sunday!

Chattanooga State Repertory Theatre (CSRT), Chatt State’s professional theatre company, is pleased to announce auditions for TINY BEAUTIFUL THINGS, based on the book by Cheryl Strayed, adapted for the stage by Nia Vardalos, Co-conceived by Marshall Heyman, Thomas Kail, and Nia Vardalos.

Seeking 4 actors to fill the following roles:

- Sugar: This character is based on the real person Cheryl Strayed. Preferably seeking a female presenting performer in the approximate age range of 35-55, but age is flexible - the character should give a warm, open, and vulnerable energy. Open to all ethnicities.

- 3 Letter Writers: these three characters represent all of the authors who wrote to the advice column “Dear Sugar.” These 3 roles are open to all ages, gender identities, and ethnicities. For the letter writers, preference may be given to Chatt State theatre/PATP alumni when appropriate.

This play is based on a true story and contains some heavy content that may be triggering, and we recommend reading the play (a pdf can be found online) prior to auditioning.

This is a paid non-equity casting call.

Watch for hints on the Instagram site as students post photos of artworks with clues to the hiding spot.
