HTG Productions Seeks Keyboard Players

MISC_keyboardHonest to Goodness Productions, Inc., is in need of a keyboard player to accompany the group called “THE GRANDKIDS” which is an ensemble group of children, ages 8 to 14, who entertain at retirement communities. Each show is 45 minutes long. The accompaniest would have to be at the recreation center or retirement facility 15 minutes before the show. The shows are usually in the early evening. There are five or six songs to play — all very simple — and sound effects to to put in at places in the skits or monologues as the children are performing. The person interested would not have to bring the keyboard. I have a keyboard with sound effects and it would be an easy thing to put down the numbers for each effect and go along with the scripts. The show is a lot of fun!

Right now, the group is new; we have a gig in July and more will come up as our marketing gathers some speed. We are going in for “short” money till the group garners some performances and gets popular; to start, we could afford to pay a keyboardist $50 per show.

My name is Sunny Monnig, President of Honest to Goodness Productions, Inc., a 501(C)(3) charity corporation. We also have the group called “K.I.D.S.” which stands for “Kids In Difficult Situations,” that entertains in elementary schools in the Greater Cincinnati area.

For more information to know more about us, please go to our website at: www.kidshtog.org and click on the “GRANDKIDS” link. If you go through the various pages, you’ll get an idea of how we have operated for a number of years. Please call me or write to me if you are interested.

trueTHEATRE Seeks Stories for trueDATING

TRUE_logoTrue Theatre is looking for stories from your dating life for “trueDATING” (show date: Monday, April 14, 2014)

First date stories… blind date stories… the most romantic… the most cheesy… From the best to the worst, we all have stories about that date we were on that went from the unknown to a story from our lives. What’s yours?

True Theatre is producing trueDATING, which will run for one night only on Monday, April 14 at the Know Theatre in downtown Cincinnati. They are now making appointments with people to hear their true, personal, DATING-related stories for possible inclusion in the show.

Appointments will be for Saturday, March 15 or by arrangement.

If you have a story you would like True Theatre to consider for this show, reach out to them at truetheatre.com/contact.html or by writing stories@truetheatre.com. They will work with you to set an appointment and provide directions.

On the night of the show, stories will be expected to fit into a 10-15 minute time window and be told without notes. For the initial appointment, it is hoped, but not mandatory, that candidates can come close to these constraints. Unique approaches to the theme are welcome. Stories may be funny or serious. All stories are welcome for consideration!

Of the stories submitted, True Theatre will select five (5) for the show which fit the theme, have a good structure, and which balance nicely against the other stories selected.

If your story is selected for the show, you will be expected to work with True Theatre to find time to participate in 1 – 3 rehearsals (as needed) and then participate in the show.

More details about True Theatre’s selection process can be found at http://www.truetheatre.com/auditions.html.

Another show that True Theatre is producing this season (and for which they are looking for storytellers) is:

Monday, July 28, 2014 – trueBLOOD

[All shows are at 7:30PM]

If you have a story that you think fits the theme of DATING or BLOOD or just have one that you gotta share, reach out to TrueTheatre by the methods listed above.
