E-mail Sarah if you're interested.
If you would like to audition for the 2010 Phoenix Players Street Cast please send an e-mail to: phoenix.players00@gmail.com
Subject Line: Audition
Attn: Sarah Cantrell
*These times and locations are subject to change, so please check the website (here or www.medievalfaire.com/ ) before heading out! All auditions will be held in the Festival Office on the Faire site.
For your audition please prepare a one (1) minute monologue of your choice (either contemporary or period) that best shows your talent:
Requirements:
-you must memorize your monologue
-choose a piece that's appropriate to the sort of character you would like to play -( for example, a peasant would never recite Hamlet's "To be or not to be...")
-please refrain from quoting from movies
-and no, you do not have to quote Shakespeare.
(In fact, we get so much of that, we advise against it.)
Additional Requirements:
-if you have an acting resumé and/or a head shot (or even a recent photograph), please bring them
- if you play a time-period appropriate instrument (eg, recorder or guitar), bring it along
-if you have a special skill (singing, dance, juggling, etc.), come prepared to share it and impress!
Notes:
- if you are under 16, you must be accompanied by your parent or legal guardian
All cast will be required to attend all Saturday and Sunday rehearsals starting mid-May, from 10am-5pm (with a break for lunch each day)
You must be available for all Faire Days this season:
July 10, 11, 17, 18, 24, 25, 31; August 1, 7, 8, 14, 15, 2010
Here are a few websites that have both period and modern monologues. Some of them are organized by gender and type.
This should make browsing easier--if you want to play a dark character choose a dramatic one, a goofy character a comic one.
I suggest not using Shakespeare--under pressure his beautiful words can tongue tie even the most seasoned auditioner.
Also remember that your monologues are to be only one minute long. With most of these you'll need to shorten them (in a logical way) to one minute.
