CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS - TORONTO
------------------------------
Looking for a female actor to play the character of Julia in the
production of MADRE by Aluna Theatre opening at Passe Muraille Backspace
from January 29 to Feb. 17 2008.  Rehearsals begin January 7th.

JULIA   
Julia is a Colombian woman in her mid sixties from an Italian and
Spanish descent. She's extremely intelligent and funny. She has lived
alone for almost twenty years since her husband Jorge committed suicide.
Although she looks fragile and common, she's a woman of an incredible
strength and endurance. She's fighting the hardest battle of her life.  

The story in MADRE takes us on a journey showing us how memory gives
MADRE is the dramatic story of Julia, an aging woman in Colombia who
fights to maintain a sense of self as she succumbs to Alzheimer's, and
her daughter Angela in Toronto, who fears for both her mother's loss and
for what she will lose us our sense of context for the present, and how
when the experiences of life that helped us to understand the world are
themselves gone, that world is taken away.
