Thanks to Sarah Kidwell, we have a lovely poster to start posting around town about auditions. Our apologies for it being so late, but if you are going anywhere in the Arnold area before Tuesday or if you can post one in your workplace, please print out a few and post them around. Thanks!
Click here to access the poster. Announcing auditions for the very first One-Act Festival of the Arnold Community Theatre Troupe, consisting of one-acts written and directed by community members.
Tuesday, May 31st 12:30 - 4:30 Community Room in the Arnold Library All ages, genders, and ethnicities are welcome to audition -- we have 28 roles to fill! No need to prepare anything or schedule an audition time -- just show up sometime between 12:30 and 4:30 and we will take care of everything. The auditions will be round-robin cold reads: You will audition for each director separately by reading from select pages from each play. The performances will be August 3rd and 4th, so make sure you are free on those dates and the week before (for tech week). If you absolutely cannot make this date/time but are still interested in auditioning, email [email protected] and we will see if we can make other arrangements; we want this to be open to all. The directors for the one-act festival have been chosen and are as follows:
1. Daniel McKinley: The Playground by Sarah Kidwell 2. Tori Hudson: Have Some Cake by Lisa Henderson 3. Abigail Henderson: The Kiss by Liz Wiegard 4. Jacob Grosche: Genetically Coded Hatred by Mike and Jake Singer 5. Mike Singer: The Girl, the Goatspleen and Everything by Mike and Jake Singer 6. Candice Moran: Pun-tervention* by Candice Moran 7. Lisa Henderson: Changes* by Lisa Henderson *pending revisions Today about nine of us met for 4 hours and discussed all of the one-acts that had been submitted in order to choose the ones that will be performed at the festival. We had eleven plays submitted and chose 7 for the performance. All of the submissions were really great, but some of them just weren't right for this festival, and we hope to use some of them in the future.
The official selections are ..... drumroll please ..... 1. The Playground by Sarah Kidwell 2. Have Some Cake by Lisa Henderson 3. The Kiss by Liz Wiegard 4. Genetically Coded Hatred by Mike and Jake Singer 5. The Girl, the Goatspleen and Everything by Mike and Jake Singer Pun-tervention by Candice Moran and Changes by Lisa Henderson are under consideration pending revision. This list is in no way representative of the order of the festival itself. Directors have also been chosen -- everyone who applied was chosen: Daniel McKinley, Michael Singer, Jacob Grosche, Candice Moran, Lisa Henderson, Abigail Henderson and Tori Hudson will be directing the plays. Liz Wiegard is serving as Artistic Director for the festival. More specific information coming soon, so keep checking back! |
