Overview

Theater Play: Casting an experienced, emotionally intelligent performer for the role of The Author, a central character in a genre-bending stage and multimedia production.Synopsis: Having given up his creative pursuits for fatherhood, and after facing a dark night of the soul, the muse returns in the guise of his deceased friend. Then his creation comes to life: his alter ego/shadow Sir Barry Brilliant, a bombastic, ego-tripping billionaire from another Universe. Complex, self-absorbed, though softened by fatherhood, The Author journeys from rock bottom to empowerment, ultimately putting his creation in it's place."The Return of Barry Brilliant" blends farce and satire with grounded realism, heightened theatricality, exploring themes of ego, fatherhood, class, power, homelessness, Indigenous perspectives, mental health, and institutional systems. This is a demanding and rewarding role, requiring strong presence, emotional range, and the ability to navigate both intimacy and theatrical scale. Casting 1 role
