The role

Who they’re looking for

Equity actors for roles in SEE ME.

Maxwell · Understudy

Playing age: Mid-30s-40

Identifies as male. White, Mid-30s-40. A New York City transplant, he worked for many years as a NY public school teacher - mostly to pay off student loans. He still maintains a mid-western sense of loyalty to people he knew as friends — even when they let him down. He's just getting by financially with odd-jobs and pluck.

Zoe · Understudy

Playing age: Mid-30s-40

Identifies as female. Open to all ethnicities. Mid-30s-40. Born and raised in The Bronx, New York. She leans into her ethnicity as strength. She calls herself an artist and painter and she is determined to make a living doing exactly that. She is urbane, gritty, grounded and feminine —though she's not at all defined by her beauty.

Playing age, Equity, understudy… what do these mean?

Playing age is how old a character appears, which may differ from your own age. Equity is the actors’ union; check each theatre’s eligibility rules. An understudy learns a role to perform when the main actor is unavailable.
