Auditions: Lysistrata
Might as well start putting myself on your radar about now...
Auditions!
Monday and Tuesday, May 14 & 15, 2012
Callbacks Thursday May 17
Time: 7:30 PM to 10 PM
Location: UCP on the Potomac, Sunrise Community
4409 Forbes Blvd, Lanham, Maryland 20706
Performances this September at the Greenbelt Arts Center
This is going to be Lysistrata in its original Greek setting (mostly), as done by flower children circa the summer of 1969. Part earnest Vietnam War protest, part sixties sex comedy. This summer, the Rudes will trip and groove back to an age of free love, man, an Age of Aquarius in which world peace didn't feel so impossible. Bring us your beads, your headbands, your tie dye, your secret optimism, and get ready to make love, not war.
If you sing, dance or play an instrument, let me know; we're doing this as a singalong with a handful of musical numbers, a nod to the Prince Charles Cinema in London, for anyone who's lucky enough to be familiar with it. (If you don't sing, don't let that stop you. It's a singalong, not American Idol, and sheer bloody-minded enthusiasm will carry more water than talent will.)
Information on characters available at http://www.rudemechanicals.com/lysistrata/characters.shtml
No monologues needed, though we'll cheerfully see them if time allows and you've got something you want to show us; we'll be working from sides from the script, which will be available on the website a week before auditions.
Hope to see you there!
