  MEET AWARD-WINNING DIRECTOR JOHN CAIRD OF BROADWAY'S LES MISÉRABLES AND ARIZONA THEATRE COMPANY'S DADDY LONG LEGS

 

 John Caird author of Theatre Craft to sign his newest book on Tuesday, November 22, 2011

 

Meet John Caird, Tony award-winning Director of Broadway's Les Misérables and Nicholas Nickleby and Arizona Theatre Company's romantic holiday musical Daddy Long Legs will hold an intimate signing of his new book Theatre Craft on Tuesday, November 22, 2011 from 7 - 8 PM at Barnes & Noble Booksellers Eastside located at 5130 E.

Theatre Craft  was published in March 2010 by Faber and Faber in London and New York and is an all-encompassing, practical guide for anyone working in the theatre, from the enthusiastic amateur to the committed professional.  With entries arranged alphabetically, Theatre Craft offers advice on all areas of directing, from Acting, Adaptation, and Accents to Sound Effects, Superstition, Trap Doors and Wardrobe.

 

Enlightening and entertaining by turns, the celebrated director John Caird shares his profound knowledge of the stage to provide an invaluable companion to anyone creating a play, musical or opera. Whatever the theatre space - the backroom of a bar, a studio theatre, or the biggest stages of the West End or Broadway - this authoritative volume is an essential reference tool for the modern theatre practitioner.

 

John Caird (Bookwriter, Director) directed the National Theatre production of Hamlet starring Simon Russell Beale presented by ATC in 2001. His productions of Les Misérables and Nicholas Nickleby have won numerous awards around the world, including the Olivier and Tony Awards.  He recently directed Macbeth at the Almeida Theatre. International credits include Dance of Death, Merry Wives of Windsor, Romeo and Juliet, The Tempest, Jane Eyre, Candide, Peter Pan, The Seagull, among others.  Other work includes Andrew Lloyd Webber's Song and Dance at the Palace Theatre and the Siegfried and Roy Spectacular in Las Vegas. Television credits include Nicholas Nickleby, As You Like It and Henry IV. Opera credits include Don Carlos, Aida, Tosca and Brief Encounter, a new opera by André Previn, for which Mr. Caird also wrote the libretto.

Tucson: December Discount on Comedy Improv at The Studio for Actors

 

From: The Studio for Actors [mailto:acting-courses@the-studio-for-actors.com]
Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2011 12:28 PM
Subject: Announcement: December Discount on Comedy Improv at The Studio for Actors

 

Taste of Improv Class

The Studio for Actors is offering a "Taste of Improv Class." Here's how it works. Just come on one Wednesday night from 6:30pm-8:00pm for only $30. This class is normally $40, but for the evenings of December 7, December 14, or December 21, you can attend for $30 for one class only, and see how much you love studying improv at The Studio.*

So, if you've always wondered (or if you've never wondered) if you would enjoy comedy improv, this is your chance to check it out.

Call (520) 881-2363 to sign up.  To qualify for the discounted price, you must say the words "Taste of Improv Class" when you call.

* Limit one $30 class per person.

A gift certificate for a "Taste of Improv Class" makes a great holiday gift.  The $30 gift certificate can be used on one announced "Taste of Improv Class" date from December 2011 through February 2012.  Call Anna Risley at (520) 881-2363 or visit holiday gift ideas for more details.

Comedy Improvisation

What a wonderful class to get you to think fast, think on your feet, loosen up your body, and how you move.  In this class, you're also taught dialects.  You don't have to be a "funny person" to do really well in this class, to have a fantastic time, and to learn a great deal.  Comedy improv isn't half as hard as it looks when you learn it from a former Saturday Night Live cast member.  Anna gives you the keys: formats, dialects, and structure.  Come play, have a ball, and enjoy discovering how funny you can be.  Also, for acting students, studying comedy improv loosens up the body, helps you think fast on your feet, introduces dialects, and sharpens your timing.

4 consecutive Wednesday nights
6:30pm-8:00pm
Start on any Wednesday (but you must call first to sign up).
$40 per week
(If you have to miss one of them, you just pay for it and then take class 5 free.)

Subject: Need actors


I own an advertising agency in Tucson and we very often are looking for actors and actresses for commercials, radio, TV, speaking and nonspeaking roles.


We have just such a need now. We are casting TV for 4 spots for La Frontera Arizona and for 2-4 spots for TV and radio for Vantage West Credit Union.

 I would love to talk to anyone who has some experience in front of a camera. I have attached a list of what we are casting now. Some of these roles may be filled but it would be worthwhile for people to contact me anyway because there are more coming in the future.

 

Paul

Talent Needed for Television Spots…November- December 2011

 

La Frontera Arizona public service announcements

Reach Out. Check In. campaign

 

Need: the principle actor/actress has to be able to communicate sadness, loneliness, depression, feeling abandoned, without words (these are all voiceover spots) – then they must be able to brighten, to express hope when the second person enters the scene. Must be subtle but clear.  2nd person in every spot need not be as accomplished an actor as the first person – we may not even see the face of the second person…these spots will be done over the next 2-3 months.

 

Spot #1: need young man, any ethnicity…plays a “veteran” age 27-32 approx. cannot be much younger, can be slightly older –  He is a recent veteran of Iraq.

Also – need second young man, also a veteran, to enter the scene and bring hope

 

Spot # 2 – need teenager, female, who looks 15-18,….

Also – 2nd female teenager, who enters the scene to make contact with first girl

 

Spot #3 – need Senior citizen,  female (70+)  (could possibly be a male but female is preferable)  - WE HAVE CASTY A MALE FOR THIS… Also – 2nd person is the granddaughter, or grandson…in her/his 20s

 

Spot #4  -   need 25-40 male Native American…need to be a Native American not an actor playing same  - WE HAVE CAST A 25 YR OLD NATIVE AMERICAN FOR THIS.

Also – 2nd person is also Native American, same age

 

December,  for Vantage West Credit Union  - a loan officer with customers

In each spot, there is only one speaking role.. They need to be able to express their mortgage needs to a loan officer (Loan officer is also speaking.)

 

Scene # 1 -  young single mom (25-30)

Scene # 2 -  an older couple (50-55) who will retire in 10-15 years

Scene # 3 -  a young couple (28-35)

Scene #4 -  a  slightly older couple (40-45)  

 

Also need two loans officers…one male, one female…late 30s to early 50s

 

These people can be any ethnicity. fine.

AND – we will do RADIO too, so that these people must be able to deliver a short line or two.

We will do all spots, all recordings, all photographs at one location (bank branch) on a Sunday, in one day, Dec. 11th.
