Two male actors required for a production of Zoo Story!

Jul 27, 2005 08:47

Well, the first of my plays is now cast and I am looking for two guys for the second half of the show - Zoo Story by Edward Albee. So if you know any male actors who want to do a not for profit production in London, please let them/me know.

Thanks!

Update: Tee hee. I am starting to get so many applications from real actors after putting up the ( Read more... )

If I could act, I would, but unfortunately the last thing I 'acted' in, apart from devoting life to being 'madderz' of course, was a school play where I played a fog horn. Yes that's right, I had to stand on stage and make the sound of a fog horn. This while the 'popular' kids got to do things like say stuff, or play the Bass Recorder.

Not that I'm bitter.

:P

well, I must say you have the look I want for the play and are the right age. TBH, I like actors who are green more than trained ones as they tend to be more natural. If you want an audition let me know although it would mean a commitment about twice a week and memorizing lines for a 40-minute play and then the commitment when we put it on. either a week or two's worth of performances.

Right, well in this situation I think I'm a green they haven't invented yet, I'm that green, but if you think I'd fit I should at least give it some consideration, but I am sure there will be far more appropriate people, for one I've never aspired to act and the memorising lines is a concern, but then given that I don't know the play, or part who can say.

Tell me a bit about the play (had a quick mooch about the net so know the format), possible role and timeline for all this happening and I'll have a think.

Well, the play is about 40 mins long and there are two men. One of the men doesn't have as many lines as the other. It's very emotionally intense, a bit theatre of the absurd and one of the guys gets stabbed in the end. This is a similarity with mine and also that it takes place on a park bench!

Time line is put it on in October. Probably about 2 rehearsals per week except for right before the shows which means more rehearsals.

Hellooo, well unfortunatly the timing counts me out, but even so I think I'd probably have to let this one go anyway, much as I hate letting an opportunity go by and much as love doing new stuff, I think I should accept this would probably be beyond me.

:) If there is any way I can be of help let me know, I just couldn't give all the commitment it would need at the time.

Now, cinema, fancy it next week?
