SEEKING

Equity actors for roles in KING JAMES

King James by Rajiv Joseph is a sharp, heartfelt play about the unlikely bond between two men brought together—and pulled apart—by their shared love of basketball and the rise of LeBron James. Written by Pulitzer Prize Finalist playwright Rajiv Joseph, this piece is set over the course of nearly two decades, the play traces the evolution of their friendship alongside the highs and lows of a sports dynasty. It's a funny, moving exploration of loyalty, identity, and the connections we build through fandom.

SEEKING:

SHAWN: MALE, Black, late 20s to mid 30s. Sharp, passionate, a writer, emotionally intelligent but guarded. Carries quiet power. His relationship to LeBron mirrors his relationship to hope

MATT: MALE, White, late 20s to mid 30s. Socially awkward but sincere. Hustling his way through life. Someone who can balance comedy and vulnerability. He loves basketball, but connection is what he’s really after.

PREPARATION

Sides are available on the aforementioned website, also here: https://www.circletheatre.com/... . We suggest being familiar with the script beforehand. A perusal script is available at the theatre Tuesdays-Fridays 11am-3pm.
