Beechmont Players is looking for four passionate directors for our 55th (2013-2014) season. Over the years our audience has built up high expectations, and we want directors who will help us deliver great shows to meet those expectations. We want directors with a strong vision and the desire to see it come true. Please submit up to five plays and/or musicals that you would like to direct in BPI’s upcoming season. If scripts for the shows you are presenting are not available at the Hamilton County Public Library, please submit a copy for the Play Reading Committee (if you do not have a copy and would like assistance obtaining a copy, please email becky@beechmontplayers.org). Please consider the group, our audience, and our theater when selecting shows to present.
Please note that the group would like to produce at least one musical in the 2013-2014 season. Please note, also, that the Summer 2014 production will be a family-friendly show. This does not necessarily need to be a show with children in it, but should at least be appropriate for children to watch.
For the director interviews, you will be asked to present up to three shows, though the Play-Reading Committee may ask you about the other two shows you submitted. Director interviews will take place on Friday, November 2, and Sunday, November 4.
A Director Application has been posted to our homepage at http://www.beechmontplayers.org. Please fill this out and return it, along with a current theatrical resume, to Becky Krausser (becky@beechmontplayers.org) by September 29, 2012. Please indicate your availability for production dates, as well as your availability for director interviews on the Director Application.
More about BPI..
Beechmont Players recently acquired a year-round build and rehearsal space. This 3,000 square foot warehouse facility is close to the theater, and provides storage, construction, and backup rehearsal space, allowing us to maximize the cast’s time “on set.” Additionally, our resident company status gives us extra stage time at the theater.
You’ll get a skillful sales machine to sell your show with posters, flyers, mailings, TV commercials, social media, online ordering and a base of roughly 5,000 past patrons.
Beechmont Players has a history of award winning shows. In 2012 we received 34 Orchids, an additional 36 nominations, and two OCTAfest awards.
Our season is made up of three shows, followed by a separate, family-friendly summer show.
