Ordinary Days Auditions

She&Her Productions*
(Community)
AUDITIONS:1/11/2012
7-10pm

Ordinary Days
Music and Lyrics by Adam Gwon
From one of musical theatre's most exciting new
composers comes ORDINARY DAYS, a refreshingly
honest and funny musical about making real
connections in the city that never sleeps (but
probably should at some point.) ORDINARY DAYS
tells the story of four young New Yorkers whose
lives intersect as they search for fulfillment,
happiness, love and cabs. Through a score of
vibrant and memorable songs, their experiences
ring startlingly true to life. ORDINARY DAYS is an
original musical for anyone who's ever struggled
to appreciate the simple things in a complex
place. With equal doses of humor and poignancy, it
celebrates how 8.3 million individual stories
combine in unexpected ways to make New York City
such a unique and extraordinary home.

SYNOPSIS:
The collaborators on Chess (Music by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of the pop group ABBA and lyrics by Tim Rice of Jesus Christ Superstar and Evita) have created a complex rock opera that played to full Broadway houses and standing ovations. Here, the ancient game becomes a metaphor for romantic rivalries, competitive gamesmanship, super power politics and international intrigues. The pawns in this drama form a love triangle: the loutish American chess star, the earnest Russian champion and a Hungarian American female assistant who arrives at the international chess match in Bangkok with the American but falls for the Russian. From Bangkok to Budapest the players, lovers, politicians, and spies manipulate and are manipulated to the pulse of a monumental rock score that includes "One Night in Bangkok" and "Heaven Help My Heart."


CAST BREAKDOWN:

Florence – Strong belt voice (to E). Mid-30's. Born in Hungary (so musn't look like an "All-American Girl"); has been brought up in America since 1956. She is clever, theatrical, touching, vivacious, volatile. Frederick's chess "second."

Freddie – Rock tenor (to C). Mid-30's. An American chess champion. A cross between Bobby Fisher and John McEnroe. Arrogant and temperamental, but a genius; his chess playing is revolutionary. We need to see his artistry along with his danger and his obsessiveness.

Anatoly – Baritone (to G sharp). Early forties. A Russian chess champion. Unexpectedly charming. He doesn't seem a romantic hero at first, but becomes one through his personality. An intelligent, feeling, passionate man.

Molokov – Bass (down to F sharp). Fifties. Not a fake, comic, stage Russian. Intellectually formidable. Seeminly a father figure to Florence. Anatoly's chess "second." An actor who sings well.

Svetlana: – Strong belt voice. Late thirties. Anatoly's wife. Domestic, wholesome, homey. A dramatic contrast to Florence-not a contemporary cosmopolitan woman.

Walter – bass-baritone (down to G sharp). Fifties. A marketing agent. Seemingly respectable, substantial, trustworthy. An actor who sings well.

Arbiter – Rock high baritone (up to A). Thirty to early forties. International businessman. Smooth, but with a quick temper.
PLUS A LARGE CHORUS


The Barn Players embraces diversity in all aspects of our organization. Non-traditional and equal-opportunity casting is encouraged.

Starlight's Fllat Stanley at the Kauffman Center

The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley
Performs at Kauffman Center January 18-20
Musical comedy kicks off second season of Starlight Children's Theatre


The beloved children's book, Flat Stanley, comes to life when Starlight Children's Theatre presents The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley, January 18-20 at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, 1601 Broadway.

The musical comedy is the story of Stanley Lambchop who becomes flattened when his bulletin board above his bed falls on top of him while he is sleeping. In a whirlwind travelogue, Stanley - the ultimate exchange student - scours the globe for a solution to his unusual problem. He's stamped, posted and cancelled from Hollywood to France to Honolulu and beyond. And whether he's thwarting a robbery at the Louvre Museum in Paris, or 'hanging ten' off the coast of Hawaii, Stanley is closing in on his goal of being a three-dimensional boy once more.

"Starlight Children's Theatre and the creative team of Flat Stanley have assembled an A-list cast, full of Kansas City's favorite musical theatre performers," said Andy Parkhurst, co-director and choreographer. "Cathy Barnett and Tom Lancaster are two of our city's finest comedians, and Katie Karel, Phillip Russell Newman and Alex Herrera represent our most celebrated young performers. With production values that are only possible with Starlight Theatre and the Kauffman Center, this production is equally enjoyable for adults and kids."


Starlight Children's Theatre, now in its second season, is a partnership between the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts and Starlight Theatre with the goal of creating fully produced children's theatre productions for Kansas City. The partnership also allows for qualified schools to receive bus money to attend the school matinees through Kauffman Center's Open Doors Transportation Fund. The school matinees for The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley are January 16-18.

"For many young audience members, Starlight Children's Theatre at the Kauffman Center provides a first-ever experience of seeing a live stage show," Parkhurst said. "Having performed for Starlight Theatre as a 13- and 14-year- old, then returning as a New York actor to inaugurate the 2000 renovations, it is wonderfully full circle directing for Starlight Children's Theatre. The Kauffman Center has helped put Kansas City on the international map as a true arts city, and it's an honor to work with both organizations."

Price Chopper is the presenting sponsor for Starlight Children's Theatre; Panera Bread and Farmer's Insurance Group are also sponsors.

ABOUT THE COMPANY
The talented cast includes Alex Herrera (Flat Stanley), Phillip Russell Newman (Arthur), TJ Lancaster (Mr. Lambchop), Cathy Barnett (Mrs. Lambchop) and Katie Karel (Mrs. Catero).

The creative team includes Michael Grayman (co-director and choreographer), Andy Parkhust (co-director and choreographer), Kevin Brogan (musical director), Sean Glass (lighting designer), Jonathan Rowell (sound designer), Jason Harris (set designer), Kent Andel (production manager), Michelle Gutierrez (production stage manager), and Sadie Desantis (assistant stage manager).

ABOUT FLAT STANLEY
Jeff Brown created the beloved character of Flat Stanley as a bedtime story for his children. He went on to write five more books about the boy who became flattened overnight and then traveled the world. Today, the Flat Stanley Project is one of the most-recognized and best-loved literacy and geography curriculums. It is meant to facilitate letter-writing by schoolchildren to each other as they document where Flat Stanley has accompanied them. This multi-generational global activity engages hundreds of thousands of children on a daily basis in classrooms around the world. For more information, visit www.flatstanley.com.

Open Call for Auditions

The River City Community Players announce there will be an Open-Call for Auditions for
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee by Music and Lyrics by William Finn, Book by Rachel Sheinkin.

Directed by MB Hurst.

Auditions will be held Jan 2-4 beginning at 7 p.m. Wed-Fri.

If one of your 2013 resolutions is to be part of a musical production; this is your first chance to accomplish that resolution.

Six young people in the throes of puberty, overseen by grown-ups who barely managed to escape childhood themselves, learn that winning isn't everything and that losing doesn't necessarily make you a loser.

The show is a hilarious tale of overachievers' angst chronicling the experience of six adolescent outsiders vying for the spelling championship of a lifetime and creates the unlikeliest of heroes for whom a spelling bee is the one place where they can stand out and fit in at the same time.

Please prepare 32 bars of a Broadway style selection (nothing from Spelling Bee). An accompanist and CD player will be provided. NO ACCAPELLA singing, tapes, or USB plug-ins.

Bring a resume and a complete list of conflicts from January 8-March 9. A current headshot is welcome, but not required.

Visit us at https://www.facebook.com/#!/events/176723789135633/?fref=ts for more information about the audition or email MB at mb.hurst33@gmail.com if you have any questions.

The Leavenworth Performing Arts Center is located at 500 Delaware St., Leavenworth, KS (913) 651-0027, www.rccplv.com

Performance dates are Feb. 23, 23; Mar. 1, 2, 8 and 9 at 8 p.m. and Mar. 3 matinee at 2 p.m.

SYNOPSIS:

The Fantasticks is the simple story of a boy (Matt) and a girl (Luisa) who fall in love on either side of a wall that has been erected between their houses by their fathers (Bellomy and Huckabee) in a plot to trick their children into falling in love with each other. Bellomy and Huckabee eventually arrange for Luisa to be abducted by a dashing villain (El Gallo, who also serves as the play's narrator) and two actors for hire (Henry and Mortimer). This plan does not proceed as planned as the children learn of their fathers' deception, causing a rift in their romance and decide to go off into the real world instead. This world proves more difficult than they had bargained for and each eventually returns home a more mature person ready to accept their relationship as it is.


PRODUCTION CREW:

Director/Choreographer: David Martin
Musical Director: Sara Blakesley
Assistant Musical Director/Accompanist: Michelle McIntyre
Stage Manager: DK Evenson
Set Designer: RickL and Mickie Riley
Lighting Designer: Chuck Cline
Costume Designer: Kerry Schafer
Properties: Valerie Martin


CHARACTER BREAKDOWN(age breakdown indicates playable age NOT actual age):

EL GALLO (male, late 20s to early 40s, SINGING role – baritone:

The bandit/narrator. He needs to be charismatic with a versatile voice that is both powerful and melodic. Think a singing version of Zorro – complete with the cape.

MATT (male, late teens to 20s, SINGING role – tenor):

Half of the main pair of lovers in the show. He needs to be young and ambitious, but a little quirky wouldn't be a bad thing. Must be similar in age to Luisa.

LUISA (female, late teens to 20s, SINGING role – soprano):

Half of the main pair of lovers in the show. She must be young and innocent but with a hint of worldly wisdom about her. Must be similar in age to Matt.


HUCKLEBEE (male or female, 40s to 60s, SINGING role) – The father/mother of Matt. Hucklebee takes a wait and see approach to parenting and gardening, preferring not to do too much. Age range will be determined in conjunction with Matt as Hucklebee must be believable as Matt's parent.


BELLOMY (male or female, 40s to 60s, SINGING role) –

The father/mother of Luisa. Bellomy has the opposite approach to parenting and gardening, preferring to overwork with the thought that too much of a good thing is never bad. Age range will be determined in conjunction with Luisa as Bellomy must be believable as Luisa's parent.

HENRY (male, 30s to 70s, NON-SINGING role) –

Described as "an old actor" may be played younger with age makeup or older. He is hired by El Gallo to help abduct Luisa and portray Matt as her savior. He is an experienced stage veteran, at least in his own mind. Improvisational skills are a plus.

MORTIMER (male, any age, NON-SINGING role) –

Henry's partner in crime and in staging scenes, Mortimer is a "man who dies." The actor playing this role will need to be a large character and comfortable with physical comedy. Improvisational skills are a plus.

THE MUTE (female, any age, NON-SINGING role) –

And, in fact, a non-speaking role, but a vital one to the production. The Mute needs to be able to drift into the background and be totally unobtrusive at times and be the most expressive person on stage at other times. In my opinion, this is the hardest role in the show.

NOTE – Henry, Mortimer, and The Mute will be called on fewer nights as there is no music for them to learn.

Dec 15 Deadline - Call for Directors - OCTA - 2013-2014

Directors wanted: passion required!

The board of directors of the Olathe Community Theater Association (OCTA) is looking for directors for our 2013-2014 season. We'd like to invite you to submit a slate of NO MORE THAN THREE scripts you'd like to direct at OCTA. If possible, please provide any license fees for each script submitted (9 performances, house seats 100, average ticket price $17). Send your ideas to us at this email address: (octa.directors@olathetheatre.org), accompanied by your theatrical resume, by December 15, 2012. Additionally, please indicate the months of the year, from late Fall 2013 to late Spring 2014 that you are available.

This year OCTA is selecting its season from submissions from directors and selections from the OCTA Season Selection Committee. We encourage all directors to submit shows that you have a passion for. However, an important consideration to keep in mind when you submit shows to OCTA is that our season is typically five shows, only one of which is a musical. The rest of the season is usually a mix of comedies and dramas. For the best chance of having one of your scripts selected for the 2012-13 season, please include a variety of genres in your submission. If, however, there's one show that's your dream show, by all means, submit it. We'll review it and see if we can fit it into our season. At OCTA we respect and encourage your passion for the material.

Another point to think about is the size of the facility. OCTA productions have certainly stretched and put the facility to the test, but we're not going to be putting on Starlight Express in our space. The OCTA stage and theater are both wonderfully intimate spaces that are geared toward smaller shows -- although many of our past productions have used quite imaginative staging to stretch the space. Our stage dimensions are included with this letter to use as a guideline for any scripts you care to submit. Also, you can obtain a list of our past shows, to give you a sense of the sort of productions that we've done before. (Don't be afraid to submit a show that you see on the list, at OCTA we're open to reviving a production from our history).

At OCTA we own our own building. You get to rehearse in the performance space from day one. You won't be lugging props or costumes from one location to another. Also, we don't interfere with your artistic decisions. Show us you can do it and we'll help make it possible!

If one of your submissions is considered for our season, we'll contact you to set up an interview. So, take a moment to consider partnering with us to produce a great piece of theater. Send in your suggestions and resume today!

****Deadline for submission is December 15, 2012.****

We look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,

Ellie DeShon
Chair, OCTA Season Selection Committee

P.S. We're serious about the three script limit. Any scripts besides the first three listed will not be considered.

SYNOPSIS:
1939 Hollywood is abuzz. Legendary producer David O. Selznick has shut down production of his new epic, Gone with the Wind, a film adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's novel. The screenplay, you see, just doesn't work. So what's an all-powerful movie mogul to do? While fending off the film's stars, gossip columnists and his own father-in-law, Selznick sends a car for famed screenwriter Ben Hecht and pulls formidable director Victor Fleming from the set of The Wizard of Oz. Summoning both to his office, he locks the doors, closes the shades, and on a diet of bananas and peanuts, the three men labor over five days to fashion a screenplay that will become the blueprint for one of the most successful and beloved films of all time.


CAST BREAKDOWN:

Ben Hecht-playwright for screen and theatre; male age 40-50

Victor Fleming-famous director extraordinaire; male age 40-55

David O. Selznick-legendary Hollywood producer; male age 35-45

Written by Martha McMillen

Join us this holiday season for the fun-filled comedy "Scrooge with a Twist". Performed in the style of reader's theatre, this play-within-a-play shows how a somewhat hapless cast, a more hapless sound technician, and a little audience participation can get us into the true spirit of the season.

Call for Directors - OCTA - 2013-2014

Directors wanted: passion required!

The board of directors of the Olathe Community Theater Association (OCTA) is looking for directors for our 2013-2014 season. We'd like to invite you to submit a slate of NO MORE THAN THREE scripts you'd like to direct at OCTA. If possible, please provide any license fees for each script submitted (9 performances, house seats 100, average ticket price $17). Send your ideas to us at this email address: (octa.directors@olathetheatre.org), accompanied by your theatrical resume, by December 15, 2012. Additionally, please indicate the months of the year, from late Fall 2013 to late Spring 2014 that you are available.

This year OCTA is selecting its season from submissions from directors and selections from the OCTA Season Selection Committee. We encourage all directors to submit shows that you have a passion for. However, an important consideration to keep in mind when you submit shows to OCTA is that our season is typically five shows, only one of which is a musical. The rest of the season is usually a mix of comedies and dramas. For the best chance of having one of your scripts selected for the 2012-13 season, please include a variety of genres in your submission. If, however, there's one show that's your dream show, by all means, submit it. We'll review it and see if we can fit it into our season. At OCTA we respect and encourage your passion for the material.

Another point to think about is the size of the facility. OCTA productions have certainly stretched and put the facility to the test, but we're not going to be putting on Starlight Express in our space. The OCTA stage and theater are both wonderfully intimate spaces that are geared toward smaller shows -- although many of our past productions have used quite imaginative staging to stretch the space. Our stage dimensions are included with this letter to use as a guideline for any scripts you care to submit. Also, you can obtain a list of our past shows, to give you a sense of the sort of productions that we've done before. (Don't be afraid to submit a show that you see on the list, at OCTA we're open to reviving a production from our history).

At OCTA we own our own building. You get to rehearse in the performance space from day one. You won't be lugging props or costumes from one location to another. Also, we don't interfere with your artistic decisions. Show us you can do it and we'll help make it possible!

If one of your submissions is considered for our season, we'll contact you to set up an interview. So, take a moment to consider partnering with us to produce a great piece of theater. Send in your suggestions and resume today!

****Deadline for submission is December 15, 2012.****

We look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,

Ellie DeShon
Chair, OCTA Season Selection Committee

P.S. We're serious about the three script limit. Any scripts besides the first three listed will not be considered.
