Cast Callout: Major – A Corpse in the Cabinet


  • The Cellar Theatre Science Road Camperdown, NSW, 2050 Australia (map)

The team behind this year’s major production are looking for a talented cast of 12 actors to bring this play to life!

About the Play

A Corpse in the Cabinet is a farce set over the course of a federal election day in Sydney. In the early hours of a sweltering summer morning, Mariah, a young intern working on Prime Minister Desmond Chudmore’s re-election campaign, finds him mysteriously dead in his electoral office. In a panic and afraid of incrimination, she calls upon two of Chudmore’s most trusted advisors - Silas and Genevieve - to help her deal with this catastrophe. Through plenty of hair-brained schemes and constant bickering, the three begin to craft an intricate conspiracy to keep the story out of the public eye, and keep the voters onside.

Casting will be gender-blind and race-blind.
