The Women of Lockerbie Auditions
Black Box Production
By Deborah Brevoort
Director Kevin Nissen
Drama
Performances: March 18 – 28, 2027
"The Women of Lockerbie" by Deborah Brevoort is loosely inspired by the true story of the aftermath of the 1988 terrorist bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. It is a beautifully moving drama that explores themes of grief, institutional bureaucracy, and the triumph of love over hatred. For context the recently released The Bombing of Pan Am 103 on Netflix is a fine overview of the tragedy of Lockerbie. Worth watching.

We will have participants read in multiple groups during the 2 hours. Sides will be provided at audition. We've provided a pdf of the full script. (The notes on the script are not mine, which is not a commentary on their validity.)
We ask all interested to sign up so that we can more efficiently conduct auditions. Sign Up here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0B4FABAC28A5FAC25-67470176-women#/
Callbacks (if necessary): Monday December 14 at 5 PM in Black Box
Rehearsals: Will begin on January 26. Auditions are well ahead of rehearsals for two reasons. (1) To try to avoid holiday travel conflicts. (2) To get scripts in actors hands early.
It is our plan to rehearse Monday-Thursday.
