The Story:
Crawlspace is based on the story of a convicted serial killer. Although inspired by
his words and the public record of his life and crimes, this is a work of historical
fiction. Certain names and identifying details have been changed to protect individuals'
privacy, and liberties have been taken that differentiate this work from true-life
events. Crawlspace is a theatrical re-imagining of the story and repercussions of
the tragic crimes.
Auditions will consist of cold-readings from the script.
Plus: Interested performers are encouraged to prepare a short singing selection.
Roles available for 17 actors, 12 main roles and 5 supporting roles:
5- women, 10-11 men.
Casting is open to all interested people. Minority performers are strongly encouraged
to audition.
Directed by Mark Harry Creter.
Produced by the Tennessee Tech English Department
