About the play
Homemakers is a dystopian and darkly humorous story about  a capitalist turned neo-liberalist society, corporate exploitation – and what one would and needs to do to build a home.  Witty dialogue sprinkled with Machiavellian philosophy unfolds relatable contemporary themes – while Big Brother is watching you. (This is an all-female led production and will put an emphasis on the female perspective.)

Cast required

Karola (30-40 Female. Any ethnicity.) Employee at a large factory complex.

Devan (20s Female. Any ethnicity.) Apprentice to Karola.

Both roles would offer a lot of potential for versatile performers with a desire to play strong female characters.  We would encourage black and Asian actors and actors from other underrepresented groups to audition for either of these roles. 

Rehearsals

Workshop & rehearsals will take place on weekday evenings and at weekends from w/c 30 October and will be planned according to availability. The first weekend is planned as workshop weekend.
The get-in is on Sunday 10 Dec with tech/dress rehearsals throughout the day on Monday 11 Dec. Cast must be available for all of this period, and for every performance

Feiyang Yang
Feiyang Yang has been with the Tower Theatre for nearly two years, coming from no theatre background whatsoever. She has had the chance to learn as many aspects as she wanted over that time, mainly focused on directing. Having assisted three very different plays (Port Authority, Twelfth Night and No Room at the Inn), she directed her first play, Distant Early Warning earlier this year. Feiyang also loves to learn about sound design and has worked on a few plays as sound designer.
