Description
What happens when the role becomes your identity?
In Role Play, a talented actress chasing her Broadway dreams finds herself unraveling during a high-stakes audition. As the pressure to succeed intensifies, her need for validation begins to blur the line between reality and musical fantasy.
Driven by performance, insecurity, and the desire to be seen, Role Play explores the cost of losing yourself in the pursuit of perfection.
Directed by Elizabeth Katz
Starring Kyra Belle Johnson and Michael Starr

A FILM SHORTAGE SELECTION
Director’s Statement (Excerpt)
As a lifelong performer, I’ve always tied my identity to how others perceive me. Over time, that external validation began to overshadow the joy that originally drew me to performing.
Role Play is a reflection of that internal struggle — and a love letter to those navigating the pressure, vulnerability, and magic of being a performer.
