SUPERSTITIONS, by Emily Zemba
Directed by Kelly Kerwin
GRIEG, male or non-binary, 30s. Grieg is a foreigner from an unknown country. Speaks with an unidentifiable accent. Grieg is wise, kind, and has a sense of humor about the world.
NEREIDA, female, POC, 30s. A realtor, Nereida has always been sharp, rational, no-nonsense. She’s always managed to keep her anxieties at bay... until very recently. At the top of the play she has begun to be affected by the uncertainty and unsettledness of the world around her. She’s married to Henry.
OLDER, 30s to 60s, a street-wise person worn down from years of never making it to the top. YOUNGER, a young person (think Gen Z) beginning to question the world. Smarter than all of us.
JANE, female, 20s/early 30s, a bit anxious, a bit naive, a bit waspy. In a relationship with Michael. We all know a Jane. She’s passionate, but uninformed.
MICHAEL, male, 20s/early 30s, a bit controlling, a bit naive, a bit waspy. In a relationship with Jane. They’re quite a pair.
HENRY/ Doubled with MAN-IN-THE-WALL, male, 30s. Henry is a hard-worker, finally feeling beaten down by the system. Recently (and secretly) unemployed. Married to Nereida.
SILDAT, female or non-binary, 30s. Sildat is an optimist, a lover. Sildat and Grieg are in a relationship and from the same place... though we don’t know that until the end of the play, and Sildat does not have a trace of an accent when we first meet them. When Sildat and Grieg are together, they speak their own language.

Everyone entering the audition venue (i.e., venue employees, Equity members, non- members, casting personnel, creatives, producers, musicians, COVID Safety Managers, etc.) will be required to undergo a symptom check and provide one of the following prior to entry into the venue:
Proof of full vaccination. “Fully vaccinated,” as defined by the CDC, is more than 14 calendar days following receipt of a final dose of an FDA or World Health Organization authorized or approved vaccine.
(OR)
Proof of a negative PCR test result taken no earlier than 48 hours prior to entry into the audition venue.
(OR)
Proof of two negative antigen test results (e.g., the first taken the night before and the second taken no less than 2 hours) prior to entry into the venue. Results of non-proctored at-home antigen tests will not be accepted.
Two-ply cloth face masks, surgical masks, singer’s masks and respirators (N95, KN95 or KF94) will be allowed for face coverings. Single-ply face masks, gaiters and bandanas are not acceptable face coverings. Everyone in the holding room and audition room will always wear a face covering as described above, except for the actor when they are actively auditioning. The time spent unmasked should be as minimal as possible. Face coverings must be worn correctly (covering the nose and mouth). Singer’s masks can be found at www.broadwayreliefproject.com/singersmask.
If the risk level for Oklahoma County is trending upwards and may rise to High (Red) we will contact members with appointments at least 24 hours before the first audition appointment time to let them know there is a chance that the auditions may need to be postponed or cancelled. All members with appointments will be notified if the auditions must be postponed or cancelled.
We encourage members to prepare for their audition at home, to the extent that they can (e.g., get dressed, hair/make-up, etc.) to avoid crowding in bathrooms and dressing rooms.
