Motherfucker with the Hat Stephen Adly Giurgis Capital T Theatre Austin TXAuditioning for the Following Roles:

Victoria (non-Equity role; female; around age 30 to 40; any ethnicity, we encourage people of color to audition) New Yorker, originally from “the neighborhood;” formerly a junior-trader on Wall Street; tough and bitter, believes that she threw her life away; “recovering” alcoholic, now addicted to staying with her husband, Ralph D.; has been numbing herself with “Ben and Jerry and cable TV,” and believes that she has “about ten more minutes of gravity left before it all comes crashing down.” Auditioning 1 p.m.– 1:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.


Cousin Julio (non-Equity role; male; around age 35; Latino) From Puerto Rico living in New York; married, “recovering” sex addict; somewhat effeminate; prizes — what he believes to be — his “Van Damme”-like fighting abilities and emerging physique, as well as his refined cooking abilities; fiercely loyal to his cousin, Jackie. Auditioning at 2 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.


About The Motherfucker with the Hat : A dark, laugh-out-loud, NYC awardwinning comedy by “our new reigning poet of the obscene.” Struggles with addiction, friendship, love and the challenges of adulthood are at the center of the story. Jackie, a petty drug dealer, is just out of prison and trying to stay clean. He’s also still in love with his coke-addicted childhood sweetheart, Veronica. Ralph D. is Jackie’s too-smooth, slightly slippery sponsor. He’s married to the bitter and disaffected Victoria, who, by the way, has the hots for Jackie. And then there’s Julio, Jackie’s cousin … a stand-up, “stand by me” kind of guy.



***Rehearsals for the show will start at the beginning of July – primarily weeknight rehearsals with some weekend afternoon rehearsals possible. The show will run August 8-31 (Thurs. through Sat. nights)
