Directions - www.anjalicenter.org
You will only need to attend one of the audition times. The audition will consist of cold readings from the play, so you do not need to prepare anything.
'Final Solutions' is set in the context of Hindu-Muslim religious tensions in India. It is the most thought-provoking work I have seen on the subject. It hits on the basic emotional, human level and seems to challenge fundamental social beliefs. The story centers around a family in India during a heated time of religious feud and social distrust.
The performance days will be October 21st through November 6th at Diverse Works in Downtown. The location of the rehersals will depend on the cast and their preference of location.
**If you cannot attend the audition times listed above and wish to audition or help with the production in any way, please email [email protected] with your information.**

Bobby - Open minded, quiet, gentle, Javed's friend. cautious, tries to blend in by not wearing religious clothing.
Ramnik - head of the house, he labels himself a political 'Liberal'. he tries to overcome the prejudices of society and the prejudices of his father by extending a hand to Javed and Bobby
