Auditions: Friday, December 30, 2011

This post contains auditions posted on Friday, December 30, 2011.

After (another) brief hiatus, the blog is back! Questioning the demand of the blog was a top priority, but feedback was provided and opinions were expressed, and now the blog is back.

This post will continue to be updated as new audition notices are discovered, so please check back throughout the week.

If you are a fan of the blog, please share this with actor friends. If you have any feedback for me on how to improve my blog, share this with me so that I may work on improving the blog.


Thanks.

Brilliant Traces-- 1 MALE needed

Type: Non-Union Theater

Project Begins Jan 17, 2012
Project Ends Mar 18, 2012

Project Description:
As the New Yorker describes it, "BRILLIANT TRACES is one of those plays in which a man and woman battle it out in a small enclosed space, alternately repulsing and seducing each other."

This play deals with how humans experience loneliness-- we are literally alone and unknown or we are surrounded by people who can't actually "see" us.

We plan to build a full rehearsal schedule once we cast this role. As of now, we will rehearse Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday evenings with other evening rehearsals to be built in after casting Harry. The benefit of having a small cast is to be flexible with our rehearsal times and places. So if scheduling is your concern, please do not hesitate to audition and state your conflicts/worries on the audition form.

We will begin rehearsal ASAP. The show runs March 9, 10, 11, 16, 17, and 18 with only matinee performances on Sundays. Tech rehearsals--March 6 and 8.

Audition/Interview Dates:
Thursday January 12 from 6-10pm

Audition Requirements:
Please prepare one contemporary monologue. Be prepared for a non traditional audition. Wear or bring (if you prefer) something comfortable to move in.

Describe any monetary compensation:
None

Character Breakdown / Project Needs
One Male needed to play:

HENRY HARRY, in his mid/late twenties. Feelings have been tamped down hard and deep in him, but they are there.
