Auditions Announced for THE FLYING DOCTOR at Equality Productions

EP_logoEquality Productions happily announces auditions for the virtual production of the comedy THE FLYING DOCTOR by Molière directed by Gabriel Brosius. Hilarious? Absolutely. Commedia and The Marx Brothers meet modern humor? Heck yeah. A couple of lines in French to tie the piece back to its roots? Sure, why not?

This director’s take on the play will be collaborative and inventive. So audition on Sunday, August 16th from 5-8P or Monday, August 17th from 6-8P. Please prepare one of the sides available on the sign-up page. You may also present a comedic monologue up to one minute as well. Sign up at this link (note the audition times are listed in CST): https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0B4EABA62DABFD0-theflying. Then please email your theater resume and headshot to the director at gmbrosius@gmail.com prior to your audition.

Callbacks are scheduled for Tuesday, August 18th from 6-8P. If that time does not work for you,  please let the director know at the time of your audition.

Non-union. This production will be done as a fundraiser and therefore these roles will not be paid. All rehearsals will take place online in a Zoom format. The tentative rehearsal schedule is 3-4 rehearsals a week for 4 weeks starting on Saturday, August 22th. Actors will not be called for every rehearsal. The show will be recorded in late September.

Synopsis: Lucile wants to marry Valère, but her father Gorgibus says no. Fortunately, Gorgibus is quite dense, so Valère gets his servant Sganarelle to help. Sganarelle, desperate to earn a buck or two, pretends to be a doctor, recommending that Lucile goes to a place where she can “hang” with Valère. Mayhem and mischief quickly ensue when Sganarelle is spotted by Gorgibus in his servant garb. He spins a tale of a doctor and his twin brother and all of a sudden he’s jumping back and forth through a window to deceive good ol’ Gorgibus.

Equality Productions encourages submissions from artists with a broad range of backgrounds, including all races, ethnicities, abilities, sexual identities, ages, and genders/gender identities. This production is open to variation regarding the age and gender of the characters. Below is the original format, but please audition for whichever part(s) you desire.

Characters:

  • Sganarelle: Young man. Servant to Valère who pretends to be a doctor. Just trying his best. Clever. Eager to please.
  • Valère: Young man. Deeply romantic. Stubborn and short-sighted.
  • Lucile: Young woman in love with Valère. Blinded by love. Desperate for respect and autonomy from her father.
  • Sabine: Young woman. Cousin to Lucile. Smart, quick-thinking, loyal.
  • Lawyer: An older man. Supportive, loves the sound of his own voice. Would absolutely define himself as a sapiosexual.
  • Gros-Renè: A young man. Respects honesty above all else. Valet to Gorgibus
  • Gorgibus: An older man. Stubborn. Dense.

Auditions Announced for A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM at Loveland Stage Company

LSC_logoLSC Radio is holding open auditions for our next production of A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM directed by Jacqlyn Schott.

Please submit a video audition containing two monologues from contrasting characters from the show. Eg: If you are interested in playing one of the Lovers, you will read said character’s monologue as well as a monologue for one of the Fairies, one of the Athenians, or for the Mechanicals.

Please do not feel restricted by gender or by how the roles have been previously, “traditionally” cast. This production welcomes diversity in all forms and encourages all who want to experience Shakespeare and a wonderful show in a fun format to audition. The monologues for your audition can be found via Google Drive (https://bit.ly/2DJe0vL).

The Lovers:

  • Hermia
  • Lysander
  • Helena
  • Demetrius

The Athenians:

  • Hippolyta
  • Theseus
  • Egeus
  • Philostrate

The Fairies:

  • Titania
  • Oberon
  • Puck/Robin Goodfellow
  • Cobweb
  • Mote
  • Mustardseed
  • Peaseblossom

The Mechanicals:

  • Nick Bottom
  • Peter Quince
  • Francis Flute
  • Tom Snout
  • Snug
  • Robin Starveling

These monologues do not need to be memorized—neither will lines for the show itself—but you should be familiar with the material. Each actor will be portraying two or more parts, so the ability to portray multiple, distinct characters is a must. Please DO NOT use an English accent for your audition, unless that is your natural accent.

Video submissions (or link to your video) must be emailed to the director (jacqlynschott@gmail.com) no later than Aug 13th, 2020. Please use the subject “LSC Radio- Midsummer audition” and include the following: which role(s) you are interested in, if you would accept any role, which role (if any) you would not accept, and all known conflicts from 8/13/20 until 9/21/20. Theatrical resumes are welcome but not necessary.

Rehearsals will consist of video chat and rehearsals at Loveland Stage Company. Days and times TBD based upon cast and crew availability. This will be a recorded event that will be posted on Loveland Stage Company’s website and social media platforms. Please go to www.lovelandstagecompany.org for our previous production to get a feel how this will work out.

Any questions, please contact the director at jacqlynschott@gmail.com.

LSC Radio is a subsidiary of Loveland Stage Company. If cast, you must become a member of the company in order to perform; this includes a $15 membership fee. We are a volunteer, community theater organization serving the greater Cincinnati area, located in downtown Loveland, Ohio.
