Subject: Casting call: 2 actors needed for short film shoot Friday the 1st

 

Greenless Pictures (www.greenless.com) is seeking 2 actors for a comedy short to be shot Firday February 1^st.  Actors of all shapes and sizes are urged to respond – the only requirement is the ability to ‘let go’ and take part in embarrassing comedy (everything is PG here, but still embarrassing for the wrong person).

 

This is a very informal production with an extremely minimalistic schedule (Noon-2pm).  It’s an odd little film – funny, but odd.

 

To audition please send a headshot to Phillip@greenless.com

 

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask.

 

Thanks!

Live Theatre Workshop Proudly Presents
Dancing at Lughnasa
By Brian Freil

 

Directed by
Sabian Trout
Assistant Director
Moriah Flagler

 

Winner of the 1992 Tony Award for Best Play, the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Broadway Play, and the
New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Play.

 

This extraordinary play is the story of five unmarried sisters (Kristi Loera as Kate, Holli Henderson as Maggie, Molly Holleran as Christina, Elizabeth Leadon as Agnes, and Jodi Rankin as Rose) eking out their lives in a small village in Ireland in 1936. It is the time of the festival of Lughnasa, which celebrates the pagan god of the harvest with drunken revelry and dancing. When the sisters finally dance to a wild, pagan Irish tune, they embody the core of the human spirit that cannot be vanquished by time or loss, or fully expressed in language.

 

"…this play does exactly what theater was born to do, carrying both its characters and audience aloft on those waves of distant music and ecstatic release that, in defiance of all language and logic, let us dance and dream just before night must fall." â€"NY Times 

 

Also starring Eric Anson as Gerry, Keith Wick as Father Jack
And Cliff Madison as Michael

 

The show opens on Saturday,  February 23
and runs through March 30, 2008.

Subject: Catalina Players Press Release - The Twilight of the Golds

 

Now Celebrating its 25^th Anniversary Season!

Catalina Players Announces Auditions

The Twilight of the Golds by Jonathan Tolins

Directed by Bill C. Fikaris

The Story:  If your parents knew everything about you before you were born, would you be here? That is the question posed in this provocative drama. All is well when Suzanne Gold and her close New York family discover that she is pregnant, until a prenatal test reveals that the baby will be born with a “specific” gene. The news forces the entire Gold family to confront issues of bigotry, evolution and the limits of love.

 

Character Breakdown: (3 men, 2 women)

 

David Gold – mid to late twenties, Charming, sensitive, gay, aspiring set designer, passionate opera fan (Wagner to be exact).

 

Suzanne Gold-Stein – early to mid thirties, David’s sister, Bright, attractive.  Feels as if she never lived up to her own potential.  Works as a buyer for Bloomingdale’s.    

 

Rob Stein – early to mid thirties, Suzanne’s husband.  A genetic researcher.  A handsome, decent fellow.  Still feels like an outsider in his wife’s family.

 

Phyllis Gold – fifties.  David and Suzanne’s mother.  An elegant woman, smarter than she sometimes lets on.  Perpetually worried about her children.

 

Walter Gold – fifties.  David and Suzanne’s father.  A sometimes gruff New York businessman.  Far more sensitive than he often appears.

Audition Dates:  Wednesday, January 30, 2008, 6:30PM

                           Tuesday, February, 5, 2008, 6:30PM

Tucson: Auditions for Stephen Sondheim's masterpiece SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE

 

 

From: Kevinj65@aol.com [mailto:Kevinj65@aol.com]
Sent: Friday, January 25, 2008 12:39 AM
Subject: Auditions for Stephen Sondheim's masterpiece SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE

 

 

Directed by Kevin Johnson

Music Direction by David Craig

Digital Projection Designs by John MacDonald

 

Stephen Sondheim's Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning musical SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE will be presented June 19th - 29th for six performances only. Arizona Onstage Productions, a multi-award winning music theater company (BARK!, ASSASSINS, A NEW BRAIN, ELEGIES), brings the story of George Seurat and his artistic vision as he creates the painting, Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, his most famous work, that changes lives, loves, and introduces the art world to "Neo-Impressionism."  

 

Currently on Broadway at the Roundabout Theater, SUNDAY won raves for its recent London production. 

 

Please a note to auditioners - this score is complicated, sophisticated, warm, funny and heart-wrenching, with much atonal harmony.  Those who want to audition should be familiar with Sondheim, should be able to sight read notes, or be very savvy with difficult harmonies and abnormal time signatures in the score.

 

Unlike the original Tony-winning production, starring Bernadette Peters and Mandy Patinkin, this staging is more a chamber piece - never missing any emotion or theatrical effects.  We see his canvas behind him as he sketches.

 

All characters except George are open...  George will be played by Kit Runge.  This is a show where it is fine to sing from the score for auditions...

 

Dot/Marie - George's headstrong mistress - also George's elderly, wheelchair-bound grandmother - MEZZO SOPRANO, HIGH LEVEL ACTRESS.

Nurse/Harriet Pawling/Mrs. - The Old lady's attendant/A patron of the arts
