"The Audition" tells the story of a group of aspiring actors who are auditioning for the fictional role of “Alpha Jay,” a self-help guru who promotes abstinence from masturbation as a tool to build confidence. As each actors' performance of Jay's monologue deepens, so does the complexity of playing a character who they feel both deeply opposed to and personally connected with.
