Auditions for "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" & "bare: A Pop Opera" at WRP!
by B W 11 Mar '19

11 Mar '19

"One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" DIRECTED BY CO-ARTISTIC DIRECTOR BRIAN WESTERLEY A charming rogue, McMurphy, contrives to serve a short sentence in an airy mental institution rather than in a prison. There, he clashes with the head nurse, Ratched, a fierce disciplinarian. He quickly takes over the yard & leads others out of introversion, stages a revolt so that they can see the World Series on TV & arranges a rollicking midnight party with liquor & women. Ratched quietly works in the background to stop McMurphy from taking over her ward. The end is as shocking today & it was when it premiered 45 years ago. ROLES AVAILABLE (Some may be doubled. Looking for a range of ages & ethnicities): CHIEF BROMDEN AIDE WARREN AIDE WILLIAMS NURSE RATCHED NURSE FLINN DALE HARDING ELLIS BILLY BIBBIT SCANLON CHESWICK MARTINI RUCKLY FREDERICKS SEFELT COL.

Peter and Jason have fallen in love with each other, but Jason -- a popular athlete -- fears losing his status if he is discovered to be gay. Unpopular Nadia, Jason’s sister, is contemptuous of Ivy, a beautiful girl with a questionable reputation. As the group attempts to put up a production of Romeo and Juliet, tensions flare, self-doubt simmers, and God’s path seems more difficult to find than ever. bare rings with the sounds of youthful repression and revolt. With a unique sung-through pop score, heart-pounding lyrics, and a cast of bright young characters, bare is a provocative, fresh, and utterly honest look at the dangers of baring your soul, and the consequences of continuing to hide. ROLES AVAILABLE (All roles except the Priest, Claire & Sr. Chantrelle must be able to convincingly play high school age): ALL ETHNICITIES & GENDER INDENTITIES ARE ENCOURAGED TO AUDITION JASON: handsome golden child of St. Cecilia’s senior class (Baritone) PETER: introspective, Jason’s clandestine boyfriend (Tenor) IVY: pretty, popular, insecure (Soprano) NADIA: Jason’s pudgy, sardonic twin sister (Mezzo-Soprano) MATT: studious, pious, Jason’s academic rival (Tenor) LUCAS: The school’s fun-loving purveyor of altered reality (Baritone) TANYA: Lucas’s girlfriend (Soprano) KYRA: student, sexy (Alto) DIANE: student, very naive (Alto) RORY: student, sarcastic (Soprano) ZACK: student, jock type (Baritone) ALAN: student, nerdy (Tenor) CLAIRE: Peter’s mother (Mezzo-Soprano) SR.

New Episodes of Backstage Buddies, Your NEO Arts Podcast!
by Jason Leupold 09 Jan '19

09 Jan '19

Hello, NEOhioPAL! Do you enjoy theatre? How about talk about Art and how we create and consume it, especially in the NEO market? Maybe you'd like some talk about superheroes and their artistic merits? Perhaps some chatter about social issues in and around the Arts is enticing, too? And would you enjoy all of that from the perspective of two area professional performers and goofballs? If any or all of that sounds like something you'd fancy, then tune into your NEO Arts podcast: Backstage Buddies! Join Jason Leupold and Joe Pine each week on Equity Monday as they talk about creating and consuming art, but with a healthy dose of irreverent silly chatter. Joe is finally back from his experience playing Horatio in Seven Stages Shakespeare Company's production of *Hamlet*, so we spend some time talking about that as well as the myriad of things we've been consuming, like Avengers Infinity War! You can subscribe (or just listen) on iTunes here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/backstage-buddies/id1207661096 Not an iTunes fan? Don't worry, we're also on Google Play: https://play.google.com/music/m/Ivbvby74odlnavsdoajljpw5yuy? t=Backstage_Buddies New episodes are uploaded Mondays (or Tuesdays or Wednesdays - get off our backs!) and you can find more info, let us know what you want to hear us talk about, or just get in touch with us below: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1394071373939047/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/BackstageBuds Gmail: backstagebuddiescast(a)gmail.com SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/backstagebuddies Thanks so much; we hope you enjoy!
