BPI Call For Directors

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.

True Theatre Seeks Your Story on “Learning”

True Theatre is looking for stories on “LEARNING” for their first show of their third season (Monday, October 15, 2012)

Time to go back to school with True Theatre! Whether it was in the classroom or on the streets, teaching or being taught, learning is a part of all our lives and all of this evening’s stories. Will YOUR story be among them?

True Theatre is producing trueLEARNING, which will run for one night only on Monday, October 15th at the Know Theatre in downtown Cincinnati. They are now making appointments with people to hear their true, personal, LEARNING-related stories for possible inclusion in the show. Appointments will be for Saturday, September 8 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.

Following the consideration period, True Theatre will select five (5) stories 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.

Other shows that True Theatre is producing this season (and for which they are looking for storytellers) include:

  • January 7, 2013: trueCINCINNATI: Stories about our favorite city and our home.
  • April 8, 2013: trueMISCHIEF: These storytellers have been up to no good! …or are the victims of those who were. Come hear about pranks and pranksters and the sneaky things that go on when you’re not looking!
  • July 29, 2012: trueCRIME: The crime rate in the summer is higher than at any other time of the year. Duck for cover with True Theatre for these stories of crime and punishment.

[All shows are at 7:30PM]

If you have a story that you think fits one of these themes or just have one that you *gotta *share, reach out to True Theatre by the methods listed above.
