ARIZONA THEATRE COMPANY’S EXUBERANT MUSICAL THE PAJAMA GAME EXTENDED�
Fresh, frisky, fun-filled musical comedy offers holiday fun for the family through December 22

Due to audience demand, Arizona Theatre Company has added performances of its irresistibly popular and wildly acclaimed THE PAJAMA GAME through December 22.�Bright, brassy and jubilantly sassy, THE PAJAMA GAME is a rollicking celebration of love, life and sleepwear. Full of jazzy songs, hot dance and exuberant laughter, this brand-new production of the frisky musical comedy soars on high style. Featuring a cast with a wealth of Broadway experience, this eye-popping show is a rambunctious pillow fight of predicaments leading to a happily-ever-after ending. The Pajama Game is a hit parade of irresistible classic Broadway songs including "Steam Heat," "Hernando's Hideaway" and "Hey There (You with the Stars in Your Eyes)".

The Arizona Daily Star raves, “Betcha can't leave a production of Arizona Theatre Company's The Pajama Game without a smile on your face. Or humming a tune from the show....a fresh delight...it's grand fun watching it....sizzles with energy, expertise, and lots and lots of steamy heat." and The Tucson Weekly says that "From beginning to end, ATC's production is exactly what The Pajama Game needs to be: frisky and joyful."

The added THE PAJAMA GAME performances are as follows:

Wednesday, December 19 at 7:30 PM
Saturday, December 22 at 2 PM
Saturday, December 22 at 8 PM

The Temple of Music and Art is located at 330 South Scott Avenue in downtown Tucson.

Tickets for the added performances are available online or at the ATC Box Office.� For more information or to purchase tickets, call the ATC Box Office at 520.622.2823 or visit www.arizonatheatre.org.

                                      Native American Actress Needed

            I am producing an exciting tv show that is truly needed and will be fun and influential to children ages 5 to 10 and possibly English as a Second Language ESL adult students. I have all the parts and pieces together except for a Native American female. You need to be someone who enjoys kids, and adult kids, as well as being light hearted, energetic, in shape, and have a sense of humor. Oh, did I mention long black hair? You would be one of a group of four friends on an island in the So. Pacific. They include a female that introduces raw food snacks and informs the kids what the food does to their body, a comic relief actor that helps with phonics and poetry throughout the show, and myself, who is “Captain Jeff”, the brave and somewhat silly sailor. (sailor, not pirate!!) Your part would be to interact with the cast and lead a group of 4 or 5 eight year olds in a set of simple, but fun exercises.

 

Auditions at Access Tucson downtown, Friday Dec. 7th from 3:00 to 4:00 pm    Thanks       Jeff Coleman

Tucson: On-Camera Film class at The Studio for Actors

 

 

From: Brian Hale [mailto:brianhale@gmail.com]

Subject: On-Camera Film class at The Studio for Actors

 

This four week class is for actors who want to do film, and it's also great for people who want to do stage work and/or TV commercials - and it's only offered once a year.

Four Friday nights (6:30p to 8:30 or 9), Jan. 11 to Feb. 1st.
You can pay the $50 per class by the week, rather than $200 upfront.

The reason this class is so valuable is the great feedback you'll receive, and at the end of the four weeks you'll receive a DVD of just your work so you can mark your progress.

Week one - auditioning on camera
You'll get a script, break it down, and audition with it on camera.  Then, we'll have a very detailed discussion regarding what you did well and where and how you could improve.  Then, you'll get new sides or a scene/copy to learn for the next Friday.

Week two - You'll look over your script then perform it on camera.  Further discussion and you can choose what you'd like to work on for the next week.

Week three - Perform your selection on camera, we'll have a discussion and then you'll have your choice for week four:
1) audition on camera
2) take a new script/sides and perform on camera
3) a mock interview on camera where you'll be asked lots of questions
4) you can tell two 2-minute stories on camera

This course is coached by Anna Risley - you can check out her resume at www.the-studio-for-actors.com.
Call 520-881-2363 for a reservation - class is limited to 8 people.
