SEEKING

Equity actors for the role of LINDALYN in THE CANNIBALS OF MCGOWER COUNTY.

SYNOPSIS: This world premiere play kicks off Larimore’s Southern matriarch trilogy. McGower County is where we meet Lindalyn and Viola – two old friends and veteran salvagers – ransacking an abandoned barbecue restaurant in the heart of West Texas. Their routine is quickly interrupted by a fatal encounter when an estranged family member appears, and working class rage, deeply-held secrets, and a deep reckoning of the past collide.

SEEKING:

LINDALYN: Female, 50s-60s; from outside McGower; controlling, alpha, vengeful, caustic sense of humor
