TW13 - The Audition Draft

Click HERE to download / read the Audition Draft of The Demolition.

NOTE: For over a decade, one of the most exciting parts of Teen West Project is the developmental process for the script. Though this is fairly "complete", it is not "finished". 

Changes will take place, particularly over spring break, after massive amounts of character work and collaboration have happened. New Work is always in flux - which is what makes this such a thrilling opportunity for all of us!

Teen West Project: Year 13

The Demolition

written and directed by

Matthew B. Zrebski

As the search for a missing young man intensifies, pieces of homes and buildings begin to disappear. Doorknobs, walls, floorboards - the elements allowing boundary, privacy, safety - gone. A group of teenagers is tossed into chaos, forced to grapple with exposure - made to look hard in the mirrors - and at each other. When nothing but an open field is left, that will they do?

GENERAL INFORMATION

This play has 17 on-stage roles and 1 voice-over role.

The current gender breakdown is: 7m, 8f, 3x. But there is flexibility to switch some roles should the casting process reveal a desire to make script alterations regarding gender.

Each character is featured in two scenes plus a full-cast "finale". This story structure allows for a fairly stress free rehearsal process as no one will have a huge line load. This is truly an ensemble piece.
