Chorus Member Auditions (Woodinville, WA)

We are auditioning for members of the Chorus for Ara'Kus, an established Operatic/Symphonic Metal Band and Production Company based out of the Seattle and North End area. We are looking for singers of all voices to join us in our hugely successful theatrical production, Aeterno Elementum, The Eternal Elements, as part of the Northwest's only heavy metal chorus. We need chorus members for the next shows, which will take place on August 26 and 27, at the Historic Everett Theater. This will be the third run of Aeterno Elementum at HET.

Aeterno Elementum tells a sweeping story of betrayal and tragedy that leaves viewers in shock and awe. The basic story is about one man's dream of a world without sin, only to find that when this is achieved, there is no one else in it. This chilling story is told not only through the music, but also through performers of all types. Actors bring to life the events of the tales, while martial artists and dancers of various sorts amaze the audience and create a sense of intense spectacle. Contributing to this artistic tapestry are compositions which feature complex, classically-influenced progressions that appeal to even non-fans of heavy metal, and showcase several operatic vocalists as well as a full 4-voice chorus. Orchestrated pieces feature operatic soprano Vivian Lee and tenor Jeremiah Johnson, plus classical interludes by guitarist Randy Haines and pianist Rachel Brunson, and other unexpected performances. We have some of the Seattle Knights performing in our fight scenes!

We rehearse on Wednesdays in Woodinville, and the show is in Everett. If you are interested in coming out to participate, contact me for sheet music; tell me if you are soprano, alto, tenor, or base. Videos and music are available on www.arakusband.com. We want to hear you sing; prepare a song to sing a capella, any song. We are looking forward to hearing from you!

Actor needed for independent feature film (Yakima Valley)

Lead Balloon Productions is looking to cast an actor to play the role of a winery owner in its upcoming independent feature film, "Cement Suitcase."

The movie, which will be filmed in the Yakima Valley in July, describes the character, known as Mr. Carpenter, as "a man in his 40s, maybe with salt and peppered hair." He's a lenient boss who has taken too much, like the dad who doesn't want to punish his misbehaving child.

Let us know if you are interested in auditioning by e-mailing us and we will contact you with sides from the script immediately. Due to distance, we are asking all actors to upload a video of their audition to YouTube or other online video service or file-sharing sites for our review.

The role of Mr. Carpenter is slated to be shot on scene in the Yakima Valley on July 14th, but the selected actor may be needed from July 12-14.

For more information on the film, visit www.cementsuitcase.com.

Actress needed for guerrilla film project

Looking for an actress, ideally 18-30 (though those numbers aren't set
in stone) for a no-budget short film shooting the evenings of July
24th and 25th (flexible dates) in the Capitol Hill and Leschi
neighborhoods of Seattle. The role isn't physically or emotionally
demanding and just requires the actress to act slightly intoxicated
and a little out of her element-- but nothing extreme. Unfortunately
we cannot offer pay in money, but a screen credit will be given. The
script for the film will be tailored heavily for the actress in
question. There are no physical requirements for the role. For more
information and to schedule an audition if interested, please email
the director at jimmybontatibus@hotmail.com

Jimmy Bontatibus is a young filmmaker stationed in Seattle, WA. He is
on the committee for Cine Foundation International, a London based non-
profit film company that features filmmakers such as Béla Tarr
(Satan's Tango, Werckmeister Harmonies, and most recently, the Silver
Bear award-winning The Turin Horse) and Lav Diaz (Evolution of a
Filipino Family, Guggenheim Fellowship recipient 2010) on the board of
directors. Jimmy wrote and directed a short film with CFI and it is
currently in a touring program.

SecondStory Repertory is holding auditions for our September 2011 production of Click, Clack, Moo: Cows that Type.

Farmer Brown is dumbfounded when his cows discover an old typewriter in the barn and begin experimenting. Things really get out of hand when the cows began airing their grievances. When Farmer Brown denies the cows' request, the bovine organizers go on strike. With help from a neutral duck mediator, the exasperated Farmer Brown finally makes concessions. But, much to his dismay, the cows are not the only creatures that can type.

The show runs September 9-25, 2011. Fridays at 7pm, Saturdays and Sundays at 1pm and 4pm. We will have school shows the week of September 19, 2011; shows are at 9:30am and 11:30am.
