Aronoff Center Jarson-Kaplan Theatre [Downtown]

Directed by Dennis Murphy
Music directed & conducted by Charles Wilhelm
Vocal direction by Kathy Kramer
Produced by Julie Beelman

Cast: Rick Kramer as Arthua, Sarah Viola as Guinevere, Dave Wilson as Lancelot, Chuck Ingram as Pellinore, Don Parrett as Merlin, Nisrene Langenbrunner as Morgan, Conor Mullin as Tom, Rick Hunt as Modrid & Angie Baker as Nimue

Borrowing from the Arthurian legends, Lerner and Loewe’s Camelot is the duo’s fantastical masterpiece. Its Original Broadway Cast Album topped the charts for sixty weeks, with a score boasting such gems as “If Ever I Would Leave You” and “I Loved You Once in Silence.” An idealistic young King Arthur hopes to create a kingdom built on honor and dignity, embodied by his Knights of the Round Table. His Ideals, however, are tested when his queen, Guenevere, falls in love with Lancelot and the fate of the kingdom hangs in the balance.

Casting Call for Strong Brothers Films 2018 Entry in the 48 FILM PROJECT

MISC_48 Hour Film Project logoStrong Brothers Films 2017 Cincinnati 48 Hour Film Project winners of best special effects, costumes & make up, and 3rd place best overall film!

Open Call to All Cincinnati Actors!

We are Strong Brothers Films and have a team participating in the Cincinnati 48 Hour Film Project (http://www.48hourfilm.com/cincinnati-oh). Want to have some fun?

The project contest runs from June 2nd—3rd, 2018. Teams pull 1 of 30 genres, Comedy, Drama, Horror, etc. from a hat at 6:00 pm EDT Friday June 1st and must turn in a 7-minute film by 6:00 pm EDT Sunday June 3rd. We plan on all filming occurring Saturday June 2nd, 2018.

We had a wonderful time with all of the actors we met on Behind The Curtain who participated in the 2017 48 Hr. Film Project with us.

  • **Actors cannot be paid per contest rules**
  • The shoot will be catered and have water/pop, etc. all day.
  • We are professionals and want to have a fun, productive experience.
  • This project is highly visible with a movie theater screening before an audience of hundreds of local people, including other local filmmakers who may want you for projects after the contest.
  • Many films end up on Youtube, etc.
  • There is a chance to win state, nationals, etc. which improves your visibility as an actor
  • We do not know what genre we will draw
  • So we don’t know what the location is other than in the Cincinnati metropolitan area.
  • We currently don’t know what the role is but there will not be anything untoward such as nudity, excessive expletives, general weirdness (e.g., not a Tarantino movie).
  • You DO NOT need to be a professional actor, just have acting experience even if it is just schooling.
  • You MUST be available all day and evening Saturday June 2nd, 2018.
  • Even if you have availability and commit you MAY NOT BE SELECTED based upon the genre we draw (e.g., a coming of age movie with teens can’t have too many middle-aged people). You may still be able to participate in other ways if you like.
  • DVDs of the finished 7 minute film are available upon request.
