Tucson: THE PAJAMA GAME added to ATC's 2007-2008 season

THE PAJAMA GAME ADDED TO ATC'S 2007-2008 SEASON

Big, bright and brassy musical brings "Steam Heat" to the stage

Arizona Theatre Company gets bright and brassy, sexy and sassy with the addition of a brand new revival of the classic Broadway musical The Pajama Game to its 2007-2008 season. The Pajama Game will be directed by ATC Artistic Director David Ira Goldstein, who has directed many of ATC’s biggest musical hits, along with the same creative team that delighted audiences with ATC’s previous sold-out hits My Fair Lady and The Pirates of Penzance. Running November 24 through December 15, 2007 in Tucson and December 31, 2007 through January 20, 2008 in Phoenix, The Pajama Game is underwritten by Bette and Gerry Zatuchni and SRP.�

In The Pajama Game, there’s unrest at the Sleep Tite pajama factory when Sid and Babe sit on opposite sides of the negotiating table clashing over a seven-and-a-half cent raise. But love threatens to shut down the plant as the battle of the sexes plays out in this rollicking classic of the Golden Age of musical comedy. The Pajama Game is a hit parade of irresistible songs including “Steam Heat,” “Hernando’s Hideaway” and “Hey There (You with the Stars in Your Eyes).” The Pajama Game, written by George Abbott and Richard Bissell with music and lyrics by Jerry Ross and Richard Adler, is a rambunctious pillow fight full of jazzy songs, hot dance and exuberant laughter.�

“The Pajama Game has always been one of my favorite classic American musicals,” said Artistic Director David Ira Goldstein in announcing the production. “With wonderfully appealing characters, a sexy love story, tons of laughs, dynamic dances and packed with great songs, we’ve been talking about doing Pajama Game for several years. It was a landmark when it first opened in 1954 and remains one of the giddiest peaks of musical comedy. With several of my artistic collaborators from previous ATC musicals coming along for the ride, we are delighted to add this high-spirited show to our 41st season.”��

ATC’s all-new production of The Pajama Game replaces the scheduled run of Mask. Due to unexpected scheduling issues with other projects for the creative team of Mask, that project cannot happen at this time.�
For more information about The Pajama Game, including season subscriptions, call the box office in Tucson at (520) 622-2823, in Phoenix at (602) 256-6995 or visit ATC online at www.arizonatheatre.org.��

SHOW: BARK! THE MUSICAL

 

 

Making its Arizona Premiere and final pre-Off Broadway engagement, Arizona Onstage Productions (THE FULL MONTY, TALK OF THE TOWN, ELEGIES, RUTHLESS!, FALSETTOLAND, ASSASSINS) presents the heartwarming, funny and touching musical journey of six dogs on their way to their destiny – whether it be the pound, a shelter, rich owners, or doggie heaven. Through song and story, the audience is exposed to the tenderness, aggression, and frustration of these beings as they share personal stories of past and present, owners and friends, and their desire to be loved and part of a family. Local adoption and rescue agencies are encouraged to participate in each performance, having dogs available in the lobby in hopes of finding new and loving homes. The show is sung entirely by dogs – played by humans, of course. The loosely connected songs, by composer David Troy Francis, are performed entirely from a dog’s point of view, which might sound unbearably cutesy. However it is surprisingly funny and poignant, tender and sassy, lyrical and quite upbeat. The Los Angeles production ran for over two years to sold-out audiences.  There have also been successful productions in Chicago, Memphis, Portland, Palm Springs, and other cities.  All opened to rave reviews and extensions.

 

The score is a happy mélange of blues, salsa, country and straight torch songs. Oh yes, and rap, not to mention rock ‘n roll, jazz and old standards. The lyrics by Gavin Geoffrey Dillard and Robert Schrock are richly varied.  A tribute to loyalty, unconditional love and all other doglike attributes, “BARK!” resonates  - whether you are a dog lover or not. Family-friendly and energetic, these dogs will add a dash of excitement to your summer entertainment options. “Two Paws Up!” said the National head of the Humane Society.

Tucson: UA's Arizona Repertory Theatre performs Neil Simon's comedy "Broadway Bound"

Subject: Press Release for ART's Broadway Bound



UA’s Arizona Repertory Theatre performs Neil Simon’s comedy “Broadway Bound”

Dates & Times:
Previews: June 10 at 1:30 p.m., June 11 at 7:30 p.m.
Evenings: June 13-16, 21-23 at 7:30 p.m.
Matinees: June 17, 23, 24 at 1:30 p.m.

Place: Tornabene Theatre on the UA campus located near the southeast corner of Park Avenue and Speedway Boulevard.

Cost/Admission: General $26, Senior Citizen/UA Employee/Military $24, Student $19, Preview $17. Tickets may be charged to MasterCard, Visa or American Express. A convenience fee of $3 per order will be charged for phone orders. If you would like your tickets mailed to you, there is an additional $1.50 fee per order.

Production Information: Broadway Bound by Neil Simon. Presented by the UA School of Theatre Arts Arizona Repertory Theatre (ART) and directed by Brent Gibbs.

Season Producer Sponsor: The Harris
Season Media Sponsors: KUAT-FM & KUAZ-AM/FM
Production Sponsors: Jane and Lee Kivel

Building upon the success of ART's first two productions in Neil Simon's acclaimed autobiographical trilogy, Brighton Beach Memoirs and Biloxi Blues, we present the much-anticipated final installment. In Broadway Bound, winner of the 1987 Tony Award for Best Play, Eugene Jerome and his brother Stanley pair up to write a comedy sketch for CBS. Inspiration is hard to come by, and they use their dysfunctional family as a model. But when feelings get hurt and family secrets come out, they discover harsh truths about who they are and learn lessons about love, forgiveness, and hope while pursuing their dream to reach New York.

Broadway Bound reunites the same cast members from Brighton Beach Memoirs and Biloxi Blues, notably School of Theatre Arts graduate J. Michael Trautmann as Neil Simon’s alter ego Eugene Morris Jerome and local actors Carlisle Ellis and Dwayne Palmer as his parents. “It is extremely unusual to be able to keep an entire acting company together in order to do this trilogy over the course of three years,” says director Brent Gibbs. “This represents a unique opportunity for our patrons to watch this entire family go through the trial, tribulations and triumphs that are a part of growing up and finally apart. It is funny, poignant and bittersweet – rather like the relationships within our own families.”

This production has been made possible by donors to the College of Fine Arts Dean's Fund for Excellence, and is offered through the generous support of the 2007 Summer Arts Festival, a program of the Office of Summer and Winter Session.

Contains adult language and mature themes.

Ticket Information:
UA Fine Arts Box Office, (520) 621-1162. Single tickets go on sale for summer Broadway Bound on May 29. Summer Box Office Hours:
May 29 – June 29: Open M-F 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. and one hour prior to evening and weekend show times.

Parking: Theatregoers may park in the Park Avenue Garage, located on Park Ave. just north of Speedway Blvd. For weekday evening performances, you can now pre-pay for parking. Monday through Friday, 5 p.m. to midnight, take your parking ticket immediately to the garage cashier after parking. Cashier is located on the east side of the main level.

Tucson: Auditioning Workshops

From: Faith Hibbs-Clark, CSA [mailto:goodfaithcasting@gmail.com]
Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2007 5:33 PM
Subject: Please post


William

I am also open to doing these workshops in Tucson based on interest. :))

Good Faith Casting

Greetings!

I am excited to be able to offer you an opportunity to train with me in a
series of workshops designed for actors who desire to audition better and
book more jobs. In the past when I have offered these workshops, they have
filled very quickly, so please contact our office right away if you are
interested. Workshops are kept very small so that you get a lot of
one-on-one feedback and camera time. Therefore, space IS limited to just 12
students.

Workshops Available

Auditioning for Film Workshop -- Saturday, June 9th, 10 AM to 7 PM. Workshop
will be held at our Phx office. Fee is $200 -- No matter how many film
classes you have taken, or books you may have read, it won't help you get
parts in movies if you don't know how to audition for film! You will never
get the chance to strut your stuff on set or use what you have learned in
other classes, if you don't first get the part. Auditions are the gateways
to your dreams and the process is often overlooked in training. As a casting
director, I have seen many capable actors who didn't get the part only
because they didn't present the producers with a strong audition.
Auditioning for film has its own set of rules and skills that vary
significantly from what you do get on the set. The trick to landing a part
in a film, is KNOWING this stuff. Auditioning actors is what I do all day
long. I see what works and what doesn't. I watch in sadness as I see great
actors sabotage their chances of success. I have taken mental notes and
decided it is time to share this information with the people who matter most
- THE ACTORS! If you want to train to "get the parts" then this workshop is
a MUST. You will learn valuable skills, knowledge, and tricks of the trade
that only the pros know, and who better to teach that than a casting
director who makes it all happen. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or
experienced, I guarantee you will learn things you have never been taught in
other classes and you will audition better for knowing it. With lots of time
on camera, and individual feedback, you can't afford to miss this intensive
one-day workshop. The fee includes a comprehensive workbook for you to take
home with you. Ages 18 and older.

Commercial Auditioning Workshop - Saturday, June 30th, 10 AM to 7 PM.
Includes free workbook and pizza lunch. Workshop will be held at our Phx
office. Fee is $200 -- Commercial acting is the bread and butter work for
actors in this market, yet few actors seem to know how to audition for them.
I see many talented actors that don't know how to audition for commercials.
There are so many small things that can make a BIG difference. The question
is, do you know what these things are and do you know WHY they are
important? As a casting director, I see what goes on behind the scenes, I
hear what the producers say, and what they like or don't like. I can help
you understand what to do to get more parts in commercials, based on that
information. You will have lots of time on camera to work on specific
skills. This is not a fluff and puff class. It is hands on and practical. It
doesn't matter if you are a beginner or have years of experience, I
guarantee you will learn things in my workshop that you have never learned
before. With lots of time on camera, and individual feedback, you can't
afford to miss this intensive one-day workshop. For actors of all levels who
are 16 or older.

OTHER WORKSHOPS AVAILABLE:
Auditioning for Film Workshop (TEENS): Saturday, June 16th, 10 AM to 6 PM.
Same great workshop as offered to adults in a teen friendly environment.
Ages 13-19. $200 Includes pizza lunch.

with other instructors. No exceptions. 18 years and up. $200 includes pizza
lunch.
