Auditions Announced for UNREHEARSED SHAKESPEARE: A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM

MISC_Unrehearsed Shakespeare logoDue to unforeseen circumstances, we will not be able to proceed with this production at this time. Thank you to everyone who expressed interest in auditioning – I hope to be able to put the show on at some other time, and hope you will all join me then!

Best,

Adrianna Boris

Unrehearsed Shakespeare, you say? Tell me more!

Well, since you asked…Unrehearsed Shakespeare is a grassroots theatre movement that’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like. A bunch of actors do Shakespeare without rehearsal. The level of staging/costuming/memorization/etc varies, but what’s consistent between productions are the spontaneity and improvisation that were germane in performances of these plays while Shakespeare lived. It’ll be oodles of fun for the actors and audience!

Audition: Saturday, June 16

2-5pm

Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, Groesbeck Branch

2994 W Galbraith Road, Cincinnati, OH 45239

Production dates: CANCELLED
Location TBAPerformances will be outdoors, rain or shine, free & open to the public.

***************

Directed/Produced by Adrianna Boris

We will only have a read-trough and a small handful of staging and fight choreo rehearsals, so please bring a list of conflicts for the month August. Actors are encouraged, but not required, to learn as many of their lines as they can – but the show will be performed with scripts in hand.

Never done Shakespeare before? Intimidated by the language? No problem! Watch a movie version, and feel free to ask questions before or during auditions. Shakespeare is for everyone, which is why we’re doing this for free in a public park!

Auditions will be workshop-style: feel free to sign up for as many or as few time slots as you like. I want to see as many people do as many scenes in as many different combinations as possible – stay and play all afternoon, if you can! No need to prepare a monologue.

If you have any special skills (tumbling, juggling, etc.), I’d love to see them! Stapled resume and headshot are appreciated, but not required.

Please sign up ahead of time so I have a general headcount: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0b4ea9ad2caafa7-auditions

Upon arrival, you will be asked to complete some paperwork, and will be shown into the room during the next break between scenes. If you would like a copy of the audition paperwork to compete ahead of time, please let me know.

Callbacks, if needed, will take place the same day, from 5:00-5:30pm. If you are not called back, it does not mean that you are no longer being considered – it just means I’ve seen everything I need to see from you.

Actors of all ages (15+), races, gender identities, and abilities are welcome and strongly encouraged to audition.

Some roles may be doubled, gender-bent, or otherwise cast “non-traditionally.”

No roles have been pre-cast.

THE LAST DAYS OF JUDAS ISCARIOT is an uproarious, poignant, thought-provoking work by Pulitzer-prize winning playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis. Boasting a large cast of zany characters, it asks one of the most plaguing questions in the Christian ideology: What happened to Judas Iscariot?

Set in a time-bending, imagined world between Heaven and Hell, Judas’ case is put to a hilarious, riotous, piercing trial – the results of which are sure to make the inhabitants of Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory — and the audience — reconsider what each thought they knew about forgiveness, faith, and the human inside one of the history’s most infamous figures.

Seeking a diverse cast. Minimum 10 M, 5 W (with doubling). Up to 18 M, 9 W (without doubling).

Local children can be a part of Cincinnati Playhouse’s classic production

CINCINNATI (May 08, 2018)—Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park will hold auditions for children interested in performing in the theatre’s 2018 production of the annual holiday favorite, A CHRISTMAS CAROL. The auditions take place June 23 and 24 at the Cincinnati Playhouse in Mt. Adams.

Nine area children will be cast to fill speaking and non-speaking parts in the show. Roles are available for boys and girls 8 to 13 years old. Additionally, a boy aged 6 to 8 years old will be cast as Tiny Tim. To be eligible, children must not turn 14 before Dec. 31, 2018. Children of all races and ethnicities are encouraged to audition.

“We’ve had a strong and committed group of young actors for a number of years, and the majority have aged-out. As a result, we have more open positions for young actors in the coming season and are excited to discover new talent,” says A CHRISTMAS CAROL director Michael Evan Haney.

Interested children must be available for all rehearsals of the production, most of which are scheduled around school hours. Children must also be available for all performances, which are scheduled Tuesdays through Sundays and include some weekday student and public matinees. Performance dates are available on the Playhouse website. All roles receive compensation.

All auditions will be held at the Playhouse, located in Eden Park at the edge of Mt. Adams, 962 Mt. Adams Circle, Cincinnati, Ohio, 45202.
