what we're looking for |
Our company will comprise of five actors employing extreme casting (see below) with a brief rehearsal period and without a director. We are looking for actors who meet the following criteria:
Actors with a strong work ethic: A solid training is good, but strong desire to improve one’s craft is even better. Actors who are independent: We will be producing this play with only five actors, and we’ll be doing it with a brief rehearsal period. We will maintain open lines of communication (email, skype, facebook) to ensure that we can work quickly and effectively when together as a cast. Actors with skills: Musical instruments, singing, dance, combat training, clowning, pantomime – you’re not required to have all of these, but we will make use of everything. Kind people: A strong ensemble is only successful if the individual members work well together. This is most easily achieved if the individual members of the ensemble are genuinely nice people who enjoy spending time together. We will be spending a lot of time together and interacting closely with our audiences. Also, in the absence of a director, we will be collaborating closely and offering continual constructive feedback to one another. Our company has no room for big egos who detract from the company atmosphere by serving their own interests first. This is more than a line on a resume. This is an opportunity to improve your craft and form a sense of community with your fellow actors and audiences. We need people who are creative, energetic, and flexible, but most of all kind. |
