Miami Hamilton Theatre looking for community actors
Miami University Hamilton Workshop Theatre is holding auditions for actors to be a part of the ensemble will present a production made up of pieces created by members of the course THE 238: Improvising Toward Devising and other area writers.
Auditions will be 6:30 to 9 p.m., Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 2-3 in Your Room Studio, 307 Phelps Hall, Miami Hamilton Campus.
From director Bekka Eaton Reardon: “At various times throughout the semester as we work with playwrights to help develop material and learn it ourselves. Some public performances will be included in the rehearsal and text development process. We will be able to work with your schedule for a lot of the process of rehearsing this production. Rehearsal times vary and are pliable until we get closer to production dates. Then we take on a more “regular” rehearsal schedule. (At which point, it looks like actors would need to be available most Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday evenings from around Oct. 26 until the show opens.”
Audition requirements:
> One-to-two minute monologue of your choice. Memorized material is always better… it shows you off better. If you do not feel comfortable with this or wind up not having one, however, do not worry. There will be monologues for you to choose from and use at the audition.
> A fun and creative improvisation activity. Be prepared to stay awhile after your audition as we will be seeing you in groups for the improvisational portion of the audition process. If you can’t stay, let us know and we will try to work around you. We cannot guarantee this, however.
> Do not worry or decide not to audition if you are unfamiliar with one or both of these processes. MUHWTheatre is very good at helping people who are new or rusty to theatre or to different theatre activities.
Production dates will be Dec. 11-13.
