Morris Park Players embraces a non-traditional casting approach to our productions – seeing the possibilities that exist when roles are cast against stereotypes. “Non-traditional casting” is defined by Actors Equity as “the casting of ethnic, minority, and female actors in roles where race, ethnicity, or sex is not germane to the character or play development.”  To this end, the Morris Park Players encourages and welcomes individuals of all backgrounds and actively seeks the involvement of people – actors, directors, staff, and audience – who are traditionally underrepresented in the theater. All are welcome.
