An Unlikely-RES-CoyoteMoon venture!

 

Michael Fenlason’s The Unlikely Theatre Company, Royce Sparks and Brandon Pittman’s RES Productions, and Howard Allen’s Coyote Moon films will be holding a second round of auditions this coming Sunday, September 21st, at Studio Connections (9071 E. Old Spanish Trail), from 5:00-8:00pm.

 

Casting will be for the Unlikely Theatre Company’s Hope, RES Productions’ The Eight Reindeer Monologues, and for a short film being produced by Coyote Moon Films.

 


From the Unlikely Theatre Company Press Release:

 

Hope by Jem Street

 

The party wants Joe Chandler to run for Congress, but in one night in a hotel by the Tennessee River, he must come to terms with an imperfect past and an imperfect future.

 

 

Joe:  How good does a man have to be to be a politician?

 

Hubbard:  He doesn’t have to be perfect, Joe, just real quiet about being imperfect. People don't need to know you’re like everyone else.  

 

 

Looking for two men between 30-50, two women between 30-50, one woman between 25-35, one African American woman between 25-35, one man 50+.

 

Hope will rehearse this coming October, and will be performed in early to mid-November.

 

 

And now for something completely different.

 

 

From the RES Productions press-release:

 

 

Jeff Goode’s Eight Reindeer Monologues provides a delicious alternative to conventional candy-cane, holiday cheer.


A furor erupts when Santa Claus is accused of sexual harassment by a couple of his reindeer. All eight share their views and anger about “the fat boy’s” alleged behavior. With calculated echoes of news coverage of public figures like Clarence Thomas, Bob Packwood and Michael Jackson, you’ll hear from the macho Dasher, the feminist Blitzen, the self-absorbed Prancer (Who's renamed himself ‘Hollywood’), and the rest of the gang in this zany sex scandal that reflects society’s own politics and inanities.

Eight Reindeer Monologues will be performed at multiple venues around town, and will be directed by MAC Award-winner, Howard Allen. Already, six performances have been booked at Club Congress, with an additional two at Bentley’s. We will be adding anywhere from four to eight more performances as December nears.



Looking for 8 talented performers of any age, and gender.

 

From the CoyoteMoon Films database:

 

“In addition to auditions for the two shows, we will also be reading for small roles in a short film. We will be looking for an older Hispanic couple, two young Latino men and one Anglo couple in their 40s or 50s.

 

 

Auditions will be held at Studio Connections on September 21st, from 5:00-8:00pm. Performers are asked to come prepared to read from the scripts- no monologues are necessary. Cold reads, as well as schedule requests, will be provided. Callbacks for each of these shows will be the following Saturday; more information will be available at the auditions. Anyone not able to make these auditions is more than welcome to reschedule, so please contact us if that's the case. We approach theatre with a relaxed attitude, so we're happy to work around you.
