Pool: Callbacks #2

TEEN WEST:  YEAR FOUR

The Pool Behind the Old Brick School

Callbacks #2 / Thurs. 11-19 / 4p - 7p

Thank you to all who auditioned at the first callbacks.  If you are not on the following list, you are still in consideration for a role in the production.  THIS IS NOT A CUT.  I am having to use the limited audition hours wisely to investigate options in the most efficient manner.

Mattie Richardson

Ezra Braxton

Gwyneth Ann Bushman

Kendall Berry

Sydney Yeargers

Will Banks

Eli Malloy

Grace Dills

Lucy Grissom

Wolf Morgan-Steiner

Julia Taylor

Maggie Conroy

Andrew Foran

Lena Bodeit

Grace Dotson

Diego Millan

Maddy Conkle

Daniel Nyounai-Herrera

For the second callback, the above actors will read scenes from the play.  Sides will be given to actors at the audition as they come in to read.  It is highly recommended that all actors become even more familiar with the current draft.  Actors will be released from auditions as the day progresses, but all should be prepared to stay until 7:00p.

NOTE: Actors may also be asked to sing.  (No prep required.)

Pool: Callbacks #1

Thank you to all who auditioned at generals.  If you are not on the following list, you are no longer being considered for a role.  I hope you will all consider being involved in other ways and help bring this new play to life!

(please forgive any typos in your names:  some of the handwriting is less than clear on the audition forms!)

For the callback, actors will take part in an improvisational, group movement exercise.  You must come prepared to move.  Dress in movement clothing.  No skirts or dresses allowed.  All actors will be required to audition barefoot. 

NOTE: Actors may also be asked to sing.  (No prep required.)

Audition Reminders!

Reminder for the auditions today:

1) Bring your audition form and a headshot!
(The computers in the drama room take pictures and there's a printer there. ;-) )

2) There's still room in the general auditions for a few more to sign up...Check the callboard for audition times if you're still on the fence!

Thank you so much, on behalf of both (SW)2 and Playwrights West, for the groundswell of interest in auditioning for this fascinating project!

Teen West Year 4: Reading!

YOU ARE INVITED!!!

Teen West Year 4:

The Pool Behind the Old Brick School by Andrew Wardenaar

Reading of current draft + Group discussion

WHEN:  Monday 10/12 from 7:00p - 9:30p

WHERE:  Room 108

WHO:  We need around 12 readers for the draft.  This is, IN NO WAY, an audition for the eventual production.  This is an opportunity to allow the playwright to hear the play and to listen to questions from you as he moves into creating the audition draft that will be the basis for casting later this fall.   We are allowing for 20 total participants. 

Please sign up on the call board ASAP!

IMPORTANT: Schedule Update and Reminders

Congrats on a VERY successful opening!!!

ONE

This is a reminder that on Sunday, 2/15, following the matinee, there is an archive photo shoot of the show. DO NOT get out of costume or make-up after curtain call on Sunday.  You may say hello to your audience in costume.  And then go directly back into the theatre and wait for instructions.  We will be shooting the show in reverse order, starting with the ending.  Once we have finished with a particular group or cast member, we will release them.  The shoot should end no later than 5:30p.  

Photos will be taken by Steve Patterson, a Playwrights West member.  I would also love for Jenna Hillenbrand to shoot as well (for any shots she is not in).  Jenna, please confirm with me.

TWO

This is a slight schedule and preparations change.  

Wednesday 2/18

Pick-Up Rehearsal / Video Shoot

(This is now not only a brush up run-through, but the official videotaping of the show.  As a result, you must now be in full hair and make-up and treat the run exactly as a show.  There will be no audience except for the two camera operators.)

CALL:  3:30p

GO:  4:30p

*Given the start time could be slightly delayed due to video set up, make-up, etc, I would plan on your release time being around 6:30p.  Please plan ahead and have snacks that you can eat as you get ready.
