TRUE Seeks Mischief Stories

TRUE_logoTrue Theatre is looking for stories on “MISCHIEF” for their next show (Monday, April 8, 2013)

We know you’ve been up to know good! …or have been the victim of someone who was. True Theatre is producing trueMISCHIEF, which will run for one night only on Monday, April 8 at the Know Theatre in downtown Cincinnati. They are now making appointments with people to hear their true, personal, MISCHIEF-related stories for possible inclusion in the show. Appointments will be for Saturday, March 9 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.

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

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

July 29, 2013, 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]

trueLEARNING on Oct.15

trueLEARNING
Presented by trueTHEATRE
Oct. 15
Over-the-Rhine

Whether in the classroom or merely at the School of Hard Knocks, we’ve all learned a lesson somewhere. On October 15, come hear from those who’ve given and received them, including a woman who thought that living with one arm would be the hardest transition in life she would ever have to face (boy was she wrong!), a man who literally dropped out of school to join the circus, a woman who found that the only way up from bottom was through a classroom she never imagined she’d enter, and a teacher facing the same frustration all teachers face: am I reaching these kids? Plus, Reva Henderson, who made audiences bust a gut with the story of her early delivery in trueMOM, returns with the story that could be considered the first step on the very long road that got her to that point! It’s Adult Education at True Theatre. Come learn a thing or two! Note: Most shows sell out in advance.
