Gone With the Wind was one of the most-beloved books and films of the 20th century, but how did the book become the movie? In Moonlight & Magnolias, Ron Hutchinson shows us what happens when you lock three of the most driven men in Hollywood in an office for five days. Coming in February 2013.
1939 Hollywood is abuzz. Legendary producer David O. Selznick has shut down production of his new epic, Gone with the Wind. 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 the three men labor to fashion a screenplay that will become the blueprint for one of the most successful and beloved films of all time. Leave those winter doldrums at the door! Join OCTA for this farce that the New York Daily News termed "Frankly, my dear, this is one funny play…a rip-roaring farce…[with] witty, pointed dialogue and hilarious situations…."

A FEMININE ENDING AUDITIONS
Saturday, January 26th 12pm-3pm
Sunday, January 27th 5pm-7pm
Callbacks TBA (either the Monday after, weekend
after, or following the Sunday evening open call
on the 27th)
A FEMININE ENDING
SYNOPSIS: Amanda, twenty-five, wants to be a great
composer. But at the moment, she's living in New
York City and writing advertising jingles to pay
the rent while her fiancé, Jack, pursues his
singing career. So when Amanda's mother, Kim,
calls one evening from New Hampshire and asks for
her help with something she can't discuss over the
phone, Amanda is only too happy to leave New York.
Once home, Kim reveals that she's leaving Amanda's
father and needs help packing. Amanda balks and
ends up (gently) hitting the postman, who happens
to be her first boyfriend. They spend the night
together in an apple orchard, where Amanda tries
to tell Billy how her life got sidetracked. It has
something to do with being a young woman in a
profession that only recognizes famous men. Billy
acts like he might have the answer, but doesn't.
Neither does Amanda's mother. Or, for that matter,
her father. A Feminine Ending is a gentle,
bittersweet comedy about a girl who knows what she
wants but not quite how to get it. Her parents are
getting divorced, her fiancée is almost famous,
her first love reappears, and there's a lot of
noise in her head but none of it is music. Until
the end.

Moving Sculptures, Telling Stories - A movement for theater workshop
Byrd Productions Presents:
Moving Sculptures, Telling Stories - A movement for theater workshop by Kirsten Stephens
The moment you arrive on stage, before you even open your mouth, you have begun telling a story. Learning to sculpt your movements allows you to communicate with your audience more directly and with greater variety and precision. In this workshop we will delve into the techniques of both Marcel Marceau and Etienne Decroux (father of Corporeal Mime). We will explore the importance of weight, form, rhythm and breath in creating character, illusion, and story in search of a more complete actor.
At The New Centuries Follies Studio inside The Arts Asylum
1000 E 9th Street, Kansas City MO.64106
The New Century Follies National Conservatory of Vaudeville is on the third floor of the west wing. Enter through the stage door in the rear of the building, easily accessed in the parking lot.
Saturday and Sunday, March 23 & 24
10:00 - 5:00 both days
dress for movement, bring plenty of water and snacks
there will be a one hour lunch break.
$100
- Contact Byrd Productions at 816-305-8188
to reserve your spot - or go to
www.byrdproductions.org
http://www.facebook.com/events/322753744490765/
Kirsten is a graduate of L'Ecole International de Mimordrame de Marcel Marceau in Paris,France. She first discovered the magic of inclinations and rotations and triple designs at a church
in Oklahoma City, finally deciding to head for Paris to audition for the school. She spent the next three years studying with Marceau, as well as the world's foremost practitioners of Corporeal
Mime (which is to mime what ballet is to dance), rounded out with classes in dance, fencing and acrobatics. Following graduation, Kirsten spent another year and a half touring Europe with
some of her classmates as Mime de Rien in an original production titled Le Pese, le Flouze, le Blé. Returning to the US, she moved to Minneapolis where she met Dean Hatton at the MargolisBrown physical theater company. Discovering a common love of mime-based
movement theater, the two have been working together as Kirsten and Dean since 2001.

39 Steps auditions
For immediate release:
KCKCC Theatre Department is holding auditions for
The 39 Steps
By Patrick Barlow and John Buchan
Directed by Charles Leader
on Wednesday, January 23, 2013
from 2:30-7:00 p.m.
at KCKCC Performing Arts Center Theatre
7250 State Avenue

Mix a Hitchcock masterpiece with a juicy spy novel, add a dash of Monty Python and you have The 39 Steps, a fast-paced whodunit for anyone who loves the magic of theatre! This 2-time Tony® and Drama Desk Award-winning treat is packed with nonstop laughs, over 150 zany characters (played by a ridiculously talented cast of 4), an on-stage plane crash, handcuffs, missing fingers and some good old-fashioned romance!
In The 39 Steps, a man with a boring life meets a woman with a thick accent who says she's a spy. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called "The 39 Steps" is hot on the man's trail in a nationwide manhunt that climaxes in a death-defying finale! A riotous blend of virtuoso performances and wildly inventive stagecraft, The 39 Steps amounts to an unforgettable evening of pure pleasure!
Cast:
Leading Man (20s-40s) English accent
Female Actor (20s-30s) Capable of doing English, German and Scot accents
2 Male Actors capable of playing a wide variety of parts: English, German, Cockney, Northern and Scot accents

SYNOPSIS: Les Liaisons Dangereuses (Dangerous Liaisons)" is adapted from the 1782 novel of the same title by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos. The plot focuses on the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont, rivals who use sex as a weapon of humiliation and degradation. Their targets are the virtuous (and married) Madame de Tourvel and Cécile de Volanges, a young girl who has fallen in love with her music tutor, the Chevalier Danceny. In order to gain their trust, Merteuil and Valmont pretend to help the secret lovers so they can use them later in their own treacherous scheming seductions and betrayals. Their games eventually turn deadly.

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 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.

A MODERN NIGHT AT THE FOLLY ~ 10th Anniversary
A MODERN NIGHT AT THE FOLLY
10th Anniversary Choreographers' Showcase
8 p.m., Feb. 9, 2013
The Folly Theater, 300 W. 12th St. KCMO 64105
Join us at 8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 9, 2013, as City in Motion Dance Theater celebrates the 10th anniversary presentation of "A Modern Night at the Folly!"
This performance features 10 of the area's most talented choreographers. This eagerly awaited one-of-a-kind event is Kansas City's only adjudicated showcase. It provides the audience with insight into the direction of our region's modern dance artists.
This year's performance will feature the choreography of Willie Lenoir, Erin Lustig, James Moreno, Jennifer Owen, Cathy Patterson, Lucy Shopen, Andrea Skowronek, Patrick Suzeau, Halley Willcox, and Ming Xia. Choreographer Andrea Skowronek, Co-artistic Director and original company member of City in Motion, will be available for interviews.
Tickets for "A Modern Night at the Folly" can be reserved by calling the Folly Box Office at 816.474.4444 or by calling Ticketmaster at 800-745-3000. Tickets are $18 in advance, $15 for students and seniors and $20 at the door. Tickets subject to convenience charge. Call the Folly Box Office for details. The Folly Theater is located at 300 W. 12th Street, Kansas City, MO 64105.
For more than 25 years, City in Motion has provided opportunities for local choreographers to present their work through the Choreographers' Showcase, the New Dance Series and Dance in the Park. "A Modern Night at the Folly" is a continuation of that tradition.
This event is partially funded by the Missouri Arts Council, the Neighborhood Tourist Development Fund, the Arts Council of Metropolitan Kansas City, United Missouri Bank and a grant from the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation.
Since 1985, City in Motion Dance Theatre has worked to promote modern dance in Kansas City. Its mission is to foster the development of high-quality contemporary dance programming and expand the dance audience in the Kansas City metropolitan region.
This 501c(3) nonprofit organization has utilized a three-pronged approach—a professional dance company; a dance school offering affordable classes for children, youth and adults; and contemporary dance programming and presentations—to achieve awareness and appreciation for modern dance. The organization is perhaps best known for its high-quality annual dance concerts at the Gem Theater, Folly Theater, Roanoke Park and other locations throughout the metropolitan area.
For more information about City in Motion and its events, call 816.561.2882 or visit its website at www.cityinmotion.org. The contact person for A Modern Night at the Folly is Crystal Robins. Please contact her via email at robins.crystal@gmail.com or by phone at 816.686.8763.

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.

Auditions for "Rent" in Concert!
Mid Life Players
(Community)
"Rent" in Concert! by Jonathan Larson: Jan 20-27: 3 pm Sun
Based loosely on Puccini's La Boheme, Jonathan Larson's RENT follows a year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York's Lower East Side, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS. The physical and emotional complications of the disease pervade the lives of Roger, Mimi, Tom, and Angel. How these young bohemians negotiate their dreams, loves, and conflicts provides the narrative thread to this groundbreaking musical. Directed by Dan Prather. Jan 20 & 27 3-5. Prepare 32 measures of a Musical Theatre or Rock selection in style of show. Bring sheet music in your key, accompanist provided. No A'cappella or singing with CDs. Open to everyone 35 and older. Rehearsals will likely be Sun & Fri, starting Feb 10, 2013. Location unknown. Performances are April 12, 13, 19 & 20, 2013 at Alcott Arts Center, 18th St, KC, KS. We plan to double cast, giving each cast 2 performances in their roles, but will be used in all ensemble number!

"Rent" in Concert! by Jonathan Larson: Jan 20-27: 3 pm Sun
Based loosely on Puccini's La Boheme, Jonathan Larson's RENT follows a year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York's Lower East Side, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS. The physical and emotional complications of the disease pervade the lives of Roger, Mimi, Tom, and Angel. How these young bohemians negotiate their dreams, loves, and conflicts provides the narrative thread to this groundbreaking musical. Directed by Dan Prather. Jan 20 & 27 3-5. Prepare 32 measures of a Musical Theatre or Rock selection in style of show. Bring sheet music in your key, accompanist provided. No A'cappella or singing with CDs. Open to everyone 35 and older. Rehearsals will likely be Sun & Fri, starting Feb 10, 2013. Location unknown. Performances are April 12, 13, 19 & 20, 2013 at Alcott Arts Center, 18th St, KC, KS. We plan to double cast, giving each cast 2 performances in their roles, but will be used in all ensemble number!

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.

A FEMININE ENDING AUDITIONS
Saturday, January 26th 12pm-3pm
Sunday, January 27th 5pm-7pm
Callbacks TBA (either the Monday after, weekend
after, or following the Sunday evening open call
on the 27th)
A FEMININE ENDING
SYNOPSIS: Amanda, twenty-five, wants to be a great
composer. But at the moment, she's living in New
York City and writing advertising jingles to pay
the rent while her fiancé, Jack, pursues his
singing career. So when Amanda's mother, Kim,
calls one evening from New Hampshire and asks for
her help with something she can't discuss over the
phone, Amanda is only too happy to leave New York.
Once home, Kim reveals that she's leaving Amanda's
father and needs help packing. Amanda balks and
ends up (gently) hitting the postman, who happens
to be her first boyfriend. They spend the night
together in an apple orchard, where Amanda tries
to tell Billy how her life got sidetracked. It has
something to do with being a young woman in a
profession that only recognizes famous men. Billy
acts like he might have the answer, but doesn't.
Neither does Amanda's mother. Or, for that matter,
her father. A Feminine Ending is a gentle,
bittersweet comedy about a girl who knows what she
wants but not quite how to get it. Her parents are
getting divorced, her fiancée is almost famous,
her first love reappears, and there's a lot of
noise in her head but none of it is music. Until
the end.
