SUNDAY IS A BIG DAY!

BLOOD WEDDING auditions!!! Sunday, 9/29, 3 p.m. in Severns!!!

Audition info is posted on our website and on the callboard. Scripts are available for check-out in the Department Office OP 1109.

BUT BEFORE AUDITIONS …

There’s a Flamenco Dance Workshop for Theatre students (majors, minors) only on Sunday at 1 p.m. in the Black Box Theatre. Elga Sepulveda Suarez and Richard Martinez will be with us to help out with choreography for BLOOD WEDDING, and if you are called back for auditions on Monday night, you’ll be asked to learn and perform a little dance before the night is over. So the workshop would be a good idea, if you can go!

Then SUNDAY NIGHT … A Flamenco Performance by Richard and Elga in Severns at 7:30! Let’s have a great big crowd for Richard and Elga. They’re wonderful young people who started their own theatre company in Puerto Rico two years ago, and have performed in venues around the world.

Hope to see you at all three events on Sunday …

We’re planning to bring Janet Albanese to campus October 19-21 to conduct a stage management workshop.  Stay tuned for more details!

BLOOD WEDDING  by Federico Garcia Lorca

10 Women, 9 Men (with doubling)

Where:  the James G. Severns Theatre

When:   Sunday, September 29^th, at 3 p.m.

What:  please prepare a monologue of no more than 1 ½ to 2 minutes in length, written in heightened language (Chekhov, Eliot, Williams, etc.).  You may perform a poem if you wish—just treat the poem as a monologue, so that you’re playing a character who has an objective, and who is fighting for something.

Callbacks:  Monday 9/30 at 6:30 p.m. in the Severns—wear clothes for movement.  You will also be asked to sing a bit.

Please note:  there are plenty of non-singing and non-dancing roles!
