About the show: Survivors of years-long natural and humanitarian disasters find each other in the forests of the West Coast. Blood relations and found families rely on each other as they face new crises: a blight targeting tree roots, and the disappearance of insects. But Cassandra, an entomologist, and her brother Alexander, an engineer, find hope in the migration of Monarch butterflies to new nesting grounds. Is this our end? Or are we changing?

To Audition: You do not need to prepare a monologue. Instead, you will be asked to perform readings from the script at the audition. Please review the sides and look at all character descriptions before auditioning. All roles open for people of any gender, unless specified. If an actor is only interested in one specific role, the director should be reminded during auditions. The Station Theatre strives to make our productions open to all levels of actors regardless of experience.  The Station Theatre works hard to make the audition experience a fun and relaxed experience.
