Be You Productions is excited to announce our 2023 production of Lucky Stiff to be staged in August at the MC Showroom.

​

We are now seeking two associate production team members for paid opportunity through ethical profit share. As we already have a leadership team we are open to all disciplines to support this work

Our successful candidates will be professionally coached throughout the process to step into a leadership role for our rehearsals, with the view to gain a position in your own right. There is also the option to stay as an associate and support the team - the offer of growth is there and the choice will be yours.

A down-on-his-luck English shoe salesman unexpectedly inherits $6 million worth of diamonds from an American uncle. However, getting the money won’t be easy. He’ll have to deal with his uncle’s unusual will terms and all the other people after his money.

Our Vision

While this show is very melodramatic and leans into a lot of tropes, we don't want it to feel fake or cheesy. We want our actors to lean in to the truth of their characters, the heightened nature of the story, as after all the truth is funny. Honest discovery, observation, and reaction is better than contrived invention. 

Real humour does not come from sacrificing the reality of a moment in order to crack a cheap joke, but in finding the joke in the reality of the moment.

Casting

Continuing with our traditions of open casting, each actor will be chosen for their personal abilities rather than them being the 'perfect fit' for the role. Every role will be open to every performer. We are limited by the rights by the gender expressions of each character, though this will not limit our imagination as to who is able to play each role. If you are passionate about a character but unsure if the actor fits, we encourage them to give it their best shot! Therefore, we're looking for open-minded and creative production team members
